do lymphoma:
Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic cancer. Like all types of cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells in the vicinity of the lymphatic cancer. Cancer of the lymphatic system can be considered as lymphatic staging. The lymphatic system essentially performs the fight against the soldiers in every area of your body, when the body is invaded area or need help to fight against foreign invaders. The lymphatic system is a network of "roads" under the chin on the back of the neck, under the armpits and groin, and the connection to the spinal cord.
Lymphoma develops as lumps in the lymph node areas. Typically behind the neck, armpits and groin not all areas develop detectable lymphoma. Once a dent is created, careful monitoring is required. Whenever there by a projection, which may be caused
1) viral infection that is easily cured by a course of antibiotics and usually last a week or two,
2) tuberculosis, can be taken in the early stages can be cured easily and require specialized care and treatment,
Cancer 3) which cannot be confirmed by biopsy. If several tumors that have developed for some time, it is essential to the parts removed by a hematologist obtained. Hematologists are doctors who specialize in treating blood disorders. Lymphoma is considered a disease of the blood. For other cancers, you can go to an oncologist.
Other characters are obviously cold sweats at night, loss of appetite, drastic weight loss and lethargy. Sometimes these symptoms are not similar to mine, except for the bumps on the base of the neck.
Like many other cancers, lymphomas are rather complicated and have different types and subtypes of lymphoma, but can be generally divided into two categories, namely, non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Hodgkin's lymphoma is curable, and the prognosis is very good.
Conventional treatment for lymphoma is - surgery and radiation - if the cancer is usually quite in phase 1 (more lately on the production) was isolated. Chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy for cancer is not as widespread in the body. If the cancer is necessary in a fairly advanced stage 3 and 4 and a complete cycle of chemotherapy, as was my case.
Staging of lymphoma is distinguished from other types of cancer. Step 1 cancer is localized in a part of a body section, either above or below the diaphragm. If the cancer is in more than one position appeared on the same side of the membrane is then to step 2. Step 3: The cancer has spread to the abdomen and in the groin area above and below the diaphragm. Step 4 represents that the cancer detected in bone marrow. Step 3 as already advanced.
Once a biopsy confirmed that the tumor is cancerous, a scanner is usually carried out at the stage of the cancer. Lymphomas in bone marrow of a valve are carried out, in order to recognize if the bone marrow is also cancer. CT scans are performed to determine at regular intervals during chemotherapy to treatment efficacy. If your current treatment is not effective, doctors switch to chemotherapy. After the treatment end one CT and PET were performed to confirm the absence of cancer cells. The words "no cancer cells detected" are the sweetest words, we can ask.
Chemotherapy can take between six and eight months and months to recover from the ravages of chemotherapy. Most people quit working to concentrate on treatment. As in my case, chemotherapy was once every two weeks. The first week, immediately after chemotherapy is the worst.
Most of the time, was too weak to stay awake. Over time, the power and the returns for the second week, you can manage a short walk. After the process is repeated.
Towards the end of chemotherapy, the body was heavily panned by the poison chemo. Often feel very different regions according to the chemotherapy, and it takes months to return to normal Tony. The recovery rate of chemotherapy really depends on the physical and mental strength.
Chemotherapy, as it is often called - "It's a marathon"
