Hello,
I am new here.
My brother 45, has just been diagnosed today with High grade Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma of Immunoblastic Type.
His symptoms were unexplained fever and abdominal pain going on for 4 months.
CT scan identified swollen periaortic and iliac lymph nodes the largest of which (4.2 cm) was surgically removed last week for biopsy.
Today, 4 days after the diagnostic surgery he had the first appointment with his doctor and he was told about the biopsy initial result. He said that furhter analysis will be done to identify exact sub-type.
He will have a PET scan and a bone marrow biopsy on Monday. That's all we know at the moment.
I feel lost and devastated and looking for some advise.
Thank you in advance
