Answer 2

There are at least 15 different types of B-cell lymphoma and most of these have numerous sub-types so for anything approaching an accurate answer you would have to tell us exactly which type of B-cell lymphoma, what were the person's previous treatments and where the lymphoma has now spread.

http://www.lymphomainfo.net/nhl/b-cell.html

A person with stage four B-cell lymphoma can sometimes have very good results resulting in remission if they were healthy prior to diagnosis, were stage four when diagnosed and then respond well to aggressive treatments.

Answer 3

"With stage three or 4 follicular lymphoma, some persons live for a couple of years with out a signs from their disease, before they have got to have cure. Between 40 and fifty five out of a hundred men and women (40% to 55%) are living for at least 10 years." at the same time that is simply normal stuff, your age, life habits, atmosphere, health, and diet can have an effect on how lengthy you're going to live to tell the tale or if you will. Lymphoma is viable to fight utilising bone marrow transplants, however the system itself is a very tricky one and your physique may additionally battle the transplant. As for the sugar, unless it would have some sort of adverse result with medicine, i don't suppose it would relatively influence your survival except you were swallowing down cupcakes through the dozen, which is not good in your health irregardless.

Answer 4

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.

According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv/ and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

Answer 5

Accurately speaking, that would depend on the oncologist, treatments, insurance, location, and the basic health of the person with the disease. At least 50% survive if given every opportunity to do so.

Answer 6

Here's is where you'll find the best info and stats:

I had B Cell NHL, and it was treated 3 years ago. If it's an aggressive form, it will respond to treatment better.
