The Official Cancer diagnosis Thread
Don't get on much anymore but I would like to share my adventure.
What started with some back pain led to a myelogram (can't have MRI because of pacemaker after heart valve replacement). Myelogram revealed 2 nodules on my thyroid. The left side was virtually gone and the right had a smaller nodule on it. They biopsied the left and found it to be benign but did not biopsy the right. They were going to remove the left side and I told them to take the whole thing because I didn't want annual biopsies on the right and was already hypothyroid. During thyroidectomy had to remove some lymph nodes during the surgery. Specimens were sent to the lab and yesterday, at my one week follow up, was given the news that I have lymphoma. Wednesday I have a PET scan to determine the severity and Thursday I have a minor surgery to install a port to begin chemo asap. At this point haven't spoken with an oncologist and don't know anything but it appears that I am not going to need to spend extra money on shampoo or haircuts for a minute. anywho, if you are praying anyway, slip a little word in for me if you could. Thanks, Jeff EDIT: I started a blog about what's going on: https://jeffbeatscancer.com/ It will have the most current information. Last edited by ShortRoundChief; 06-03-2017 at 11:24 AM..

Good luck in your fight, I hope you kick it's ass |

Good luck to you, J Diddy. If Eric Berry can do it, so can you.

Sorry to hear that and you'll be in my thoughts.
On a positive note, there have been a lot of developments over the last several years in treatments for HL, NHL ,and B-Cell lymphomas. Much more effective w/ fewer side effects than past generations of drugs.

JFC! What the hell is going on around here? I wish you all the best and sending you prayers in your fight.
We need someone to kick cancer's ass after losing 3 guys in the last nine months; BigMeatball Dave, Saccapoo and LonewolfEd. No more!
