Hodgkin's disease offers hope with early treatment
A reader with Hodgkin's disease learns prognosis can be favorable when diagnosed early. The doctor notes cure rates up to 90 percent in early stages, with radiation and chemotherapy improving outcomes. The answer explains Hodgkin's is a cancer of lymphocytes, typically affecting neck nodes and later other nodes, liver, and spleen. It also advises guarded optimism and follow up with cancer societies.
