Just got diagnosed with neuroblastoma. what effect on my health can i expect this to have?

Diagnosis?: If you are truly 46 years old, the first thing i would do is make absolutely sure that the correct diagnosis had been made. Neuroblastoma in someone over 40 years old would be incredibly rare. If your doctors are sure of your diagnosis, there is very little data on standardized treatments or outcomes. It can be very difficult to treat. Need to have input from academic medical center if not done.
