What a well spoken lady
I watched your testimony when I was first diagnosed. I’m now dormant. I watched it again. Found other new bits and pieces of encouragement and advice. Thank you for making it.
Hi, I too have had Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma. I was in Stage 4 upon diagnosis, and have been in remission for over 2 years. I had Rituximab immunotherapy.

Hi Jackie, I'm 33 and recently diagnosed with Marginal Zone Lymphoma (very rare for someone my age) and put on 'watch and wait' or 'watch and live' which I think is a better way of looking at it! Thank you so much for doing this video, it's so good to hear stories of people who've managed to remain well on watch and wait for long periods of time and gives me hope. Here's to your next 10 years!

Hello Amy - thank you for asking this question. The information we have on Splenic Marginal zone lymphoma is here. lymphoma-action.org.uk/types-lymphoma-non-hodgkin-lymphoma/splenic-marginal-zone-lymphoma - we are unfortunately unable to comment on individual conditions so our suggestion would be to raise this with your medical team. We send you our best wishes.
