Has anyone heard of MALT B CELL LYMPHOMA

I was visiting with a friend that had almost 100% symptoms like I do and did that was diagnosed with MALT B cell lymphoma and treated for it.

What are the tests for the MALT B cell lymphoma?

Its one of a number of NHL lymphomas, as is CLL.

I had a biopsy from a colonoscopy that an inexperienced pathologist suggested was MALT, but when the same sample was submitted to a CLL expert pathologist at Weill Cornell NYPresbyterian, they interpreted the FISH test of the sample as indicating CLL cells in the walls of the colon.

I've also had skin biopsies where both T cells and CLL cells are found in greater than normal numbers, so I suspect that T cell lymphomas like MALT and B-cell lymphomas have similarities.
