Has Anyone Been Diagnosed With Having A Paraneoplastic Syndrome?

A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Vancouver, BC

Im going to see a neurologist because shortly after I was diagnosed with SLL I started having an involuntary back arching issue. They think it’s either a neurological issue or some sort of movement disorder. The neurologist wants to test for a paraneoplastic issue.

Has Anyone Felt Like They Miss Their Oncology Visits And/or Infusions?

A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Loogootee, IN

Has anyone felt like they miss their oncology visits and/or infusions? Sounds weird to me, but I find that I do to some extent. Is it the comfort of knowing they’re there for me? Knowing someone is watching over me? A separation anxiety? Don’t get me wrong, I’m thankful that the treatments have done what they’re supposed to do and I don’t have to worry about it getting worse. But how what do I say to my loved ones? How do I explain it? Do I need to find someone to talk to?

A MyLymphomaTeam Member

Thank you.
