@mrsmrcharl Hi, I've been away from the site for a while, but I had DLBCL too and am now in remission. How is your husband doing? My doctor told me at the time that R-CHOP has generally great results for DLBCL but that in some cases it's not enough. I hope your husband is doing ok.

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

My husband has non-Hodgkin diffuse large b-cell lymphoma since January 2018... He has had chemotherapy with not great success and experienced bad side effects. A lower dose chemotherapy was then started because of the side-effects. Success was initially thought, but then found cancer still present with PET scan. He has 10 treatments of radiotherapy. PET scan. Cancer is less present...
Doctor are considering another round of R-CHOP or clinical trial of a certain new drug... I am just nervous and worried with all the treatments.
Anyone have any success with a different treatment? Anyone else gone through a similar experience?
