I was diagnosed with Waldenstroms, which is a Non-hodgkins Lymphoma, and have spent several hundred hours doing research on this rare disease. I would like to connect with all other Waldsenstrom sufferers.

I have Waldenstroms also and was diagnosed in 2007. My IGM has been stable at around 2700 but my beta2 has been 5 or over. The Docs can’t really explain what that means. I also have multiple enlarging lymph nodes, which is not considered significant, unless they cause problems.
I have not had any treatment other than IV iron for occasional anemia.
I am 77 years old and live in Knoxville, TN.

Who is your doctor in Knoxville? My father has Waldenstroms. Was diagnosed almost 8 years ago. Have complications now. Believed to be Bing Nell Syndrome. His oncologist is not the easiest to work with. Want to get a second opinion. Thanks!
