I hope the best for you my friend, I was in your shoes 3 years ago, just like u my knowledge of cancer was weak, the absolute best advice I can give u is to not be scared and research, research, research and learn. There is so much to it, but this way u can advocate for yourself. And just to ease your mind cancer is not what it was 20 years ago, they have made so many advancements and new treatments. 3 years now after I was diagnosed I just finished up 6 months of some pretty intense R-chop Chemo, I just had my PET scan 2 weeks ago to see if it worked. . There are two organizations that are very helpful in many ways… Lymphoma and Lukemia Society and Lymphoma Research Foundation… They have on staff oncologists and will give you a free second opinion. There u can find all of the newest treatments and Novel Pharmacutical being used they are the most up to date on everything than anywhere else. They also have grants u can apply for. There are also copay assistance programs they offer that help in a huge way. I def suggest contacting them. There is much more I can help u with that will save u a lot of time and aggravation. My name is Hank, my cell number is 210-850-8070. I live in sanantonio Texas. Text me , ill help u in every way I can think of. I remember how I felt 3 years ago when my life was just awesome, could not have been better, then a two month stay in the hoapital and being diagnosed with Cancer changed every aspect of life as I knew it…the more prepared u are now the easier this journey is going to be for u, Text me amigo, ill share a lot of info with u
