  • Hello Soulgirl

    I'm sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. Many of our members here will understand how low and anxious you can feel after being diagnosed with cancer. 

    It sounds as if you have lots of unanswered questions about your diagnosis and what it means for you. Do you have a follow up appointment arranged or were you given contact details of a Consultant or specialist nurse that you could contact? If not then perhaps you could get in touch with your GP who should be able to explain your diagnosis. 
    T cell lymphoma is quite rare and I'm not sure that we have any active members here at the moment. However there are specialised organisations where I'm sure you will be able to connect with others who have experience with this diagnosis as well as find lots more infoamtion. 

    Lymphoma Action UK have lots of telephone and online support available including a buddy service which may be useful for you. You can read more on their website here

    You're most welcome to give our team of nurses a call to talk things through. I'm sure that they will be able to offer you some support and advice. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope that some of this helps. 

    Best wishes,
