Hi Shelly,

So sorry to hear about your husband new Dx! I had Non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 1991 when I was 28. *VERY* aggressive which, apparently, made it more treatable. I went into a research trial of "high dose CHOP" with neupogen, which was brand-spanking new back then, went through 12-weeks of hell, mostly in the hospital, but made it through. I was declared cured in 1995 and its never come back. I have, however, had other health issues (clearly!) but no one has ever been willing to tie that illness or treatment to any of the health issues I've had since.
