In reply to the discussion: I finished chemo this week. [View all]negoldie
(198 posts)67. Congrats from a fellow traveler
I got the r word Thursday. I still have two more treatments but as of now I'm in remission. After the treatments I have maintenance every other month but good news abounds in our household!
Still taking a shit load of pills but I won't miss the chemo at all. BTW I have a rare non hods kins lymphoma (less than 5% of all NHL's) so I have literally been a guinea pig, and hope the work that was done on me will help others.
I congratulate you and wish you the best. I know how you must feel!
