If you can go to Boston go to either Mass General Hospital Cancer Center or Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Both are teaching hospitals and have excellent lymphoma doctors.Good luck and God bless you!

Thank you for the references, Maltipoo, but I was hoping that maybe there may be a specialist in Rhode Island. I have been going to an excellent oncologist/hematologist for the past year and a half, but I was wondering If I might need a specialist. However, He seems to know what treatments I need so far. I told him upfront that I don’t want to take chemotherapy.

It is my belief we need the doctors to kill the cancer but it is our responsibility to treat our bodies correctly to help heal and to keep the cancer from returning. Two of the best books that I have read are "The China Study" by T Colin Campbell and "Radical Remission" by Kelly Turner. I picked both books up at the library and they are life changing reads. Good Luck and Good Health!

thank you so much for the book references. They really sound interesting and I’m going to check my library to see if they have them.
