How can the life of a patient who is diagnosed with hodgkin disease change?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Little or a lot: How life changes depends on the stage, and the histological type of the disease as well as how the patient deals with the disease. By and large hodgkins disease requires chemotherapy and/orradiation depending on the stage. The length and intensity of chemotherapy depends on the stage of the disease.Some patints manages the treatment well without changing life's routine much, while others do not.
