Hello Sarah,

Sorry for your diagnoses but I hope your treatment goes wonderfully and you will be cancer free. Do you know what sub-type of NHL you have?

Hello Antoni 

                 No I don't all I know it's in my chest and is quite big ... it was a shock to my family as I had no symptoms  so everything has happened so quickly not had time to get my head around it all x

I understand, yes it can hit you out of nowhere. It will be hard to give you any specific information without knowing the sub-type and also each invidiual is different. But to give you some words of comfort the faster growing/high grade lymphoma cancers usually respond well to chemo. And as it is a blood cancer although it can go anywhere it is not like most "solid" cancers and usually the chemo will melt the tumor away like hot water over ice.

I am no doctor so please take everything I say with a pinch of salt but a family member had lymphoma so I made it my business to learn as much about it as I could.

Try and remain positive if you can and you can beat this thing!!! I hope your chemo goes very well and you will be in remission. Please keep us informed and if you need to talk/vent please use this forum it's unvaluable and you will find people who have been/are going through it so will understand!!!
