Frustrated

Hi, I am Debbie, 61yrs old. Diagnosed with follicular lymphoma about 1 1/2 years ago. After 1 round of giziva, I had to stop because of my low WBC count. Luckily, after the 6 weeks of giziva and benomustine I was in remission. It’s time now, after 10 months, to go for a pet scan to see “what up”. Not much I hope.

I feel each day is not the same as it was before being diagnosed with cancer. I am constantly thinking about having to start chemo and all the side effects that can occur. My pet scan is next Thursday. My follow-up visit after the scan is 9 weeks later.
