I've recently been diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma. I am undertaking a 12 week chemotherapy treatment. I'm having many of the expected side effects -- flu-like feeling, loss of hair, mouth sores, generally feeling weak and tired. I may be in the wrong echo for this, but I am looking for other people who have been through this experience, or is knowledgeable regarding chemotherapy and/or lymphomas. Any comments or input will be appreciated. Thanks. Sherman Peabody -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!10!475.0!Sherman.Peabody Internet: Sherman.Peabody@p0.f475.n10.z1.fidonet.org
