Nothing right now. Just monitoring me. A good friend his fatherland had lymphoma in his 60s he is late 80s now. No medicine ever. Sooo we will see.

Glad to hear you caught it early. I developed metastatic melanoma a lifetime ago and would probably not be here today if it weren't for the brilliant oncologists and medical staff at the Hillman Cancer Center in Pittsburgh.

We have local Hillman Center about 3 miles from me. Arnie Palmer helped $$ support it as his wife had cancer. The oncologist Dr Geiger there after 1st biopsy said you may want to get 2nd opinion.So she called Dr Hoe at Hillman Shadyside,herself set up appointment. All of these people everyone have been very kind and patient. I said 'do you people take happy pills?' They are very devoted caring for patients. I'll see Dr Geiger next week as a follow up from this weeks test. What impressed me was after our first mtg she hugged me slightly. She was very very good taking bone marrow sample no pain at all. Take care guys.
