Close Non-hodgkin's Lymphoma
Type: Low Grade Non-Hodgkin\'sI'm a 27-year-old single mom who recently got diagnosed with Stage 1 follicular NHL about 2 months ago. The irony of this, is that I am a pre-med student who is now pursuing a career in hematology because of my diagnosis, and I am also undergoing radiation therapy right now because it was localized to the area I had my lymph node removed for biopsy.
Treatments
- Radiotherapy Too Soon to Tell
- Having 44.2Gy of radiation treatment currently for a total of 4 weeks so Im unable to say if this is going to work since Ive only just started this week. Also I cant tell if what Im feeling right now is due to side effects from the radiation or the cold I recently got from my child so there is no determining exactly which is causing my tiredness and lack of hunger probably the cold. Will update as soon as I can though!
Close Asthma
had this since I was a kid, but it only started flaring up as an adult. now I have NHL on top of this (and ADD), and my child has asthma as well (much worse than mine).
Treatments
Open College Stress
took a 9-year hiatus between high school & college. currently a pre-med student, trying to attend school while undergoing radiation therapy for NHL.
Treatments
- Sleep Somewhat Helpful
- depends...I'm a night person, so waking up early is still hard for me! Naps help, but I can't fit them in as much as I need or want, so it depends on if I get to nap period!
