I am very interested also because I am 4 months post chemo for lymphoma myself.

I pray that your cancer is cured and no more chemo or radiation will be needed.

My son has had 7 chemo treatments at 3 week intervals and has one more to go. That's if a PET scan after the last treatment shows no cancer cells in the lymph gland that was affected. He has tolerated the chemo better than we expected so far. It always leaves him feeling bad for a few days after the treatments, and of course all of his hair and eyelashes are gone, but no serious side affects so far.

The oncologist hasn't decided yet whether to follow up the chemo with radiation, so we aren't out of the woods yet. Thank God the tumor was caught early before it spread beyond the one gland.
