Day-to-day aspects
Living with lymphoma can have an impact on day-to-day practicalities, such as driving, finances, studying and travel. Find the facts and where you can get help if you need it.
Living with lymphoma?
Some types of lymphoma grow slowly which means you don't need treatment straight away and will instead have regular check-ups with your medical team. For other types of lymphoma, treatment aims to send the lymphoma into partial remission. Living with lymphoma can be difficult - we offer a range of information and support to help.
