Chrystal Cranford asked Lynda [Wolters] Riggers:

how long have you had this type of cancer ?

Lynda [Wolters] Riggers Hi, Chrystal - I was diagnosed August 2016. Mantle Cell Lymphoma, "the Beast" as we refer to it, is a sneaky one - it goes undetected and then wham! It turns aggressive and with each relapse is more difficult to treat. It is, unfortunately, incurable. That being said, I did a clinical trial and the MCL has been 'dormant' (better word than remission as people hear cure) for a few years. I am, by all accounts, very fortunate and above the curve compared to the majority of my fellow warriors with MCL. Thank you for asking. Are you or someone you know suffering with cancer? I'm always available to chat.
