You said it!! We are so confused! When they told us they could not 100% rule out Plasmacytoma, my thoughts were they ruled out everything else. So when they told us he had Lymphoma, we were numb! When looking for information on Lymphoma I know it says it can be a lot of different cancers, I thought maybe Plasmacytoma was one! Thanks for correcting this for me.
When this has never happened to you, how do you know the questions you should ask? My dad is booked the beginning of January for full body CT Scan to see if it is anywhere else. After that to see the oncologist for the full prognosis and treatment....he's 74.
Is there anything you can tell us about Lymphoma? What questions we should be asking. I tell you the internet is very scary when you google Nasal Lymphoma, All I see is NK -T Cell Lymphoma (Natural Killer). Prognosis seems to be poorer over 60?
I need to be strong for my mom and dad, but I am not a strong person. I deal with thinigs a lot different!! I guess I need to know what to expect, so I can deal with it before it happens! That way I am not a "basket case" around them.
Questions, he suffers terribly from the night sweats, now that he knows its Lymphoma he is not sleeping. He needs to rest, he is extremely (putting it mildly) exhausted. Is there something natural that you can suggest to help him sleep. He does not want to get addicted to sleeping pills.
Thank you for your responses!
