Non Hodgkins or Hodgkins Lymphoma - has anyone had this?

Hello, I had an ultra sound today on a 2cm which the radiologists suspects it is a abnormal lymph node. I did a biopsy and waiting for results. In case the worst happens I would just like to ask any sufferers of hodgkins or non hodgkins lymphoma what their experience with the disease was like and how it started and what their prognosis was like. Thank you so much for your time to read this and answer.
