Second opinion: Allogeneic BMT with its graft vs. lymphoma effect seems to be favored over autologous and is currently being evaluated in this mostly slow, indolent, relapsing disorder. Where it fits in the pantheon of different treatment modalities should be discussed with your oncologist or get a second opinion at a center like City of Hope or Sloan Kettering
