What my mom has!

I just copied this from my mom's blog

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma
I met with Dr. Simon today. He wants me to get a PET scan . Then we will start the fun stuff.Pathological Diagnosis:Left inguinal mass, incisional biopsy:Diffuse large B cell lymphoma.
Focal residual lymph node with lymphoid hyperplasia and sinus histiocytosis.The immunoprofile (by IHC) and histomorphology of the extranodal infiltrate and focal nodal infiltrate are those of aggressive B cell lymphomia, best classified as diffuse large B cell lymphoma.If you can understand all that you should be a med-student or an MD.
The T cells are involved also, but the test was inconclusive on them.The PET scan will tell us what stage I am in and what drugs to use for the chemo.It doesn't look so bad, so don't worry! I'm not.
"This life is the test!" Love Ya'll
