Lymphoma Lowdown on Mental Health

As we all know scans are routine but it still doesn’t help having that dreaded feeling in the pit of your stomach going for them.

In 2017, at the age of 26, Megan was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. She is now in remission after receiving 6 months of chemotherapy treatment at the Royal Marsden in Surrey. Mental health was a very big part of her cancer experience and she shares how her lymphoma diagnosis and treatment caused anxiety and the feeling of isolation and the actions she took to help overcome this.

From the beginning of my lymphoma diagnosis, I knew it wasn’t going to be a walk in the park. I had never experienced this before & so there was so much of the unknown to come..
