Here is the main text from the letter by my oncologist to my GP and everyone involved in my case - emphasis is my own.:
"Re: Arif Khan
Diagnosis: Stage 1A mixed cellulairty Hodgkin's lymphoma of the right axilla Diagnosed August 2007. Treatment: September to December 2007 four courses ABVD chemotherapy. Completed IF radiotherapy February 2008
I reviewed Mr Khan on 7th April 2008. Clinical examination revealed no lymphadenopathy and no palpable liver or spleen. He is now six weeks from completion of the radiotherapy, which went almost uneventfully, apart from minimal irritation of the site of the radiotherapy in the right axilla. The plan is to follow him up on a three monthly basis in the first year. I have organised for him to have a CT scan and haematological / biochemical profile in June.
Yours sincerely"
Its good that the examination appeared to be clear and we'll see how the CT scan goes. I can't feel any enlarged lymph glands anywhere so im quite optimistic that all should be well.
