It was easy to understand in hindsight but I was in shock and couldn't take it in at the time.
My Heamatologist confirmed what I suspected and took immediate action.
I was first told that I had CLL and then after the second visit and blood work I was told that I had NHL. No other information.
it was fairly to easy to understand owing to my wife passing just 6 months before i had it.
I was mainly told about my treatment options. I had to do most of the research on-line.
I seem to recall being given general information about types of cancer, but nothing specific or detailed about the type of NHL I had.
I am on watch and wait, left the doctors after my treatment I had splenic marginal zone NHL, but 2 years later, I don't know what stage I was in at the time... he wasn't very informative, just pray all the time that it stays away
I was not given written information. However< I have an oncologist who gave me a very thorough discussion about my particular type of NHL, and how he would treat it. He answered any and all questions I had. Never made me feel like he was in a hurry.
