NHL--What to do?
I am pleased with the comments made in this blog. Your statements are mostly heartening, sometimes sad, but always, most interesting. Please continue to send in your comments.
It is impossible for me to personally answer each of your comments. Therefore, I shall "categorize" them in an effort to most clearly be responsive.
Many of the comments ask, in effect, what should I do? This is a critically important question. The basis of this question is the consensus amongst lymphoma experts that "no one knows the right way to treat non-Hodgkin's lymphoma". Since there is no single "right way", there are numberous treatment plans that you have described in your comments.
I write only as a patient, not as a physician. I urge each NHL patient to consult with a physician experienced in radioimmunotherapy so that the patient will have the widest breadth of treatment options.
