My dad got diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgkins Lymphoma and he will start his chemo today. I just want to know what you did to prevent side effects of chemotherapy
Make sure to ask the doctor and healthcare team about all symptoms and the medications that help ease these synptoms such as nausea, insomnia, neuropathy and numbness, mouth soure.. keep in contact with the healthcare team so they can prescribe a medication once a symptom appears.
Wow. So glad I found this video. I just found out that I have a recurrence of my HL. This makes me feel much better and optimistic. Tomorrow I find out what my teams will suggest my treatment to be.

I have recently been diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma and I am in the Fort Worth area, I cannot for the life of me get any oncologist offices to return my calls. I am freaking out about what possible stage I am in and when I can start treatment, but no one in the fort worth/keller area seems to care.
mine is “highly suspicious” from the 3rd biopsy and the tissue sent to johns hopkins. but the sample was crushed. now i’m on to full node excision. keep getting canceled for “bigger cases.” i’m so scared that it’s going to get worse bc it’s been 7 months since an incidental finding of a mass in my lung
