it is good to hear you are clear of NHL , Tina, despite the aftermath. Have you had much help from a dietician or nutritionist with finding food you can manage and even enjoy? We are fortunate in our support group to work with a lovely nutritionist who helps our members through workshops and 1to1 sessions at special rates (or we can fund).

Hi tina, Im Josie I seem to be like you.

I had a lump on my neck, had it cut out....no treatment, just watch and wait every three months.

since July 2015.....LGFL, stage one grade one. my doctor is confident that I will be fine.

Don't understand why the food tastes strange to you (is there something you can do)...I don't have that... Basically Im pretty normal. Two years

Not what you're looking for?
