Overview
Patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma have many treatment options. The selection depends on the stage of the disease. The options are radiation therapy, chemotherapy and high dose chemotherapy and bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplant. Before treatment starts, ask your health care team about possible side effects and how treatment may change your normal activities. Because cancer treatments often damage healthy cells and tissues, side effects are common. Side effect may not be the same for each person, and they may change from one treatment session to the next.
