A member asked:

So i have been referred to a oncologist for possible lymphoma, what is treatment like or what are treatment options or lymphoma? just wondering.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends.: There are many different kinds, all treated differently. The oncologist has to determine, first of all, if this is a lymphoma at all, and if so, how to proceed next. It may be a long process, and you will need to have close contact with your doctors.
