In some cases can do three rounds of chemo and radiation. I was not a good candidate for radiation since my lymphoma was head and neck so I did 6 cycles of chemo

Hey, I’ve added you to my prayer list and you’ll be prayed for every evening.

Cheryl:

I don’t really know how much scar tissue there is, just that it is there. The oncologist said that radiologist notes it on his report, but doesn’t seem concerned as long as it isn’t growing. I know some folks here have to have this kind of tissue radiated after chemo, that wasn’t mentioned to me. I think normally you have a PET scan after chemo is complete to determine the next step in treatment. Good luck!
