1995—Initial diagnosis
I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s, low-grade, stage III-B Follicular lymphoma. My entire lymphatic system was involved with the cancer being predominate on my “right” side.
I was given 8 cycles of CHOP chemotherapy over approximately nine months and was blessed to achieve remission.
CHOP Chemotherapy:
- C: Cytoxan® (cyclophosphamide)
- H: Adriamycin® (hydroxy doxorubicin)
- O: Oncovin® (vincristine)
- P: Deltasone® (prednisone)
