I finished treatment for Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2012. I gained quite a bit of weight during treatment, largely from the steroids and being significantly less active. A few years out of treatment and I am still working to get back to my fitness levels from before diagnosis. I've recently invested in

CAR-T therapy first showed success in CLL and AML leukaemias, but one of the problems with CAR-T is that the T-cells are not selective against cancerous lymphocytes, so they keep killing off both cancerous and non-cancerous lymphocytes long after treatment initiation.
