2nd Cycle

Hello Everyone

This is my very first post on HealthUnlocked.

Just back from 2nd R-CHOP for Stage 1 Non-Hodgkins Diffuse B- Cell Lymphoma.

I think I have coped well with the first cycle, no severe side effects but some depression.

Do you think this will remain stable for my remaining cycle ( 3 cycles and radiation in total )?

Great to hear you are coping well, I also had 3 rounds of R-CHOP followed by radiation, for me the chemo was easier to handle than the radiation as my cancer was in my jaw bone, so mouth sore were a bit of an issue, but overall both were better than I was expecting, that was 4 1/2 years ago and so far so good, I hope you have limited side effects as I did, depression is always an issue as cancer is hard to get out of your mind, but family , exercise and keeping busy help, good luck!

Thanks for your insight Larwil. My lymphoma is at the top of my inner thigh. I hope its not too troublesome.

Good to hear you are not having severe side effects. I have Follicular Non-Hodgkins and have had 4 rounds of RCHOP with 2 to go to complete the cycle. Only side effects I've had is a bit of nausea and tiredness about a week after my treatment. Hang in there and it's all worth it, even though it doesn't seem to be at the time, with many appointments etc. Good luck
