How long can you live with lymphoma

Everyone thinks that lymphoma is very similar to cancer and cannot be cured, so most people think that they can expect to live after radiotherapy. In fact, everyone's physical condition is different, and their resistance to disease is also different. The survival period is also different for different people. So how long can you live with lymphoma?

How long can a patient live after radiotherapy for lymphoma? The survival period is different for each patient. It depends on the patient's response to the treatment drugs and whether it is appropriate treatment. Relax and actively treat the disease so that you can survive for a long time. The treatment of lymphoma is a systematic process that involves many factors. Generally speaking, how long a patient can live after radiotherapy for lymphoma depends mainly on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical function and immunity. You can take Chinese medicine to regulate immunity and increase human tolerance, but some Chinese medicines are easy to irritate the stomach. It is more appropriate to choose non-irritating and easy-to-digest Chinese medicines.

Lymphoma is the malignant transformation of lymphocytes. According to the "World Health Organization's Pathological Classification of Lymphatic System Tumors", there are nearly 70 known pathological types of lymphoma, which can be roughly divided into two categories: Hodgkin's lymphoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In my country, Hodgkin's lymphoma accounts for 9% to 10% of lymphomas and is a group of malignant tumors with relatively good treatment efficacy; non-Hodgkin's lymphoma accounts for about 90% of all lymphoma cases, and the incidence rate has been increasing year by year in the past decade.

Lymphoma is a malignant tumor originating from the lymphatic hematopoietic system. It is certainly treatable, but no method can guarantee a complete cure. Treatment can only relieve symptoms and prolong survival. The main treatment is chemotherapy, and adjuvant radiation therapy may be used. If you divide lymphoma into different pathological types, the prognosis and survival period will be different. If it is Hodgkin's lymphoma, the survival rate of lymphocyte-dominated lymphoma is the highest, with a five-year survival rate of over 90%. However, if the lymphocytes are depleted, the five-year survival rate is less than 30%. If it is non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, the five-year survival rate is over 60% if the diffuse lymphocytes are well differentiated, while it is around 40% if the differentiation is poor.
