Featured question in the online cancer support forum.

I am almost 4 years out from treatment and I am struggling with fear. I worry everyday about some sort of cancer returning. I know others have or are going through the same thing. Just wondering if anyone can give pointers on taming this fear.

I am on ACT. I have finished the AC and have one more treatment of the T-Taxol. Has anyone experienced under eye dryness. Red, dry, not itchy but definitely there and uncomfortable. I am looking for a good treatment. I have tried alot of creams, vitamin e etc but thought someone out there may have found the answer already. Its been two weeks now and its not getting better.

For those out there who have had experienced Rituxin infusions, can you tell me what to expect? Have you had CHOP before? If so, how do they compare? I had CHOP in November 2009 - February 2010 and was in remission until December 2010. The only treatment available now (according to docs) is Rituxin but I'm in "watch and wait" mode until further notice. I'm very curious as to how these treatments compare and how normal things are/aren't while treatment is underway. Does treatment last only a few weeks? Does it last a few months? Does length of treatment depend on how well and how fast it works, or is it a set number of treatments? Since there currently no cure for NHL, how effective is this treatment and how long does it keep the problem at bay? Do times of treatment get closer and closer together as the years go by? Is it possible to have the treatment so successful that years can go by without further treatment? I'm curious.... and definitely am looking for people who've experienced this to let me know how you handled this. Do you have any tips of things to avoid or things to do to keep any negative side effects to a minimum?

I signed on to I HAD CANCER last week and told my story. I actually thought it was good therapy to write it down. My question is why do the majority of people not share their story? One of the reasons I signed up was to compare others' experiences to my own prostate cancer situation.
