Smzl For 18 Yr. Splenectomy;then No Problems; Good Bloodwork But Now Constant Itching Has Started. Any Suggestions -is This Typical. Age 72
I totally agree. You need to see the oncologist before July. One of the signs of lymphoma was itching… I had no idea - I was trying to figure out what I was allergic to!!
You have to be your own advocate! Get in to see that Dr. sooner or find another one who can!
I would call to get in sooner than July. My lymphoma transformed to a more aggressive type and it started to take hold pretty fast. I always call with symptoms. Don't let it wait.
Nan4,
Hi and welcome to the site. Everyone on here is so kind, supportive and helpful. I have/had DLBCL and had treatments of RCHOP chemo. I've been in remission for 3 years. I would absolutely call your oncologist and let them know. Ask to talk to a nurse at your office about this and maybe they can get you in sooner then July. Kelly
Thanks -that’s what I’m anxious about .’ See the dr in July .for my yearly check up .
Mention it to oncologist. Intense itching was one of my signs of a relapse.
