Cancer

Mantle Cell Lymphoma treatment.... spoke with oncologist yesterday, we talked about more chemo, then 3months after that, I may have a stem cell transplant (some people call them bone marrow transplant). The transplant is the easy part, stem cells are feed back intravenously, but before that a very high dose of chemo is taken to kill of the lymphoma and good cells, the scary part is your body is open for infection for two weeks :-(
