Hodgkin's lymphoma

Currently 4 months in remission from Hodgkin's Lymphoma Stage 4. 

Still feeling slightly breathless, fatigued. 

Anyone else had the same diagnosis? 

How is your recovery?

  • Hello just to say that I am in my 6th month of remission from Non-Hodgkins, I like you have many times where I feel totally exhausted, but not done much to feel that way, when I asked my consultant he  it is all part of the healing process, our bodies have been subjected to very strange procedures that we have real idea on how we are going to react, also he did throw in the fact that I am 71 and feeling tired etc also happens at my age, so not expecting to run a marathon just yet :) , please be patient with yourself as this will take some time to render itself, I have just started an on-line course, Understanding cancer support, this has kept me occupied and if I feel tired I just switch it off and have a nap, it's surprising how we adjust to these changes, you will come through it but sometimes it takes a while, as for my recovery I now only have to see the consultant ion a 4 monthly basis instead of monthly, so recovery is going forward day by day.

    Hope you start to feel more active soon.

    Take care Mick.
