Title:
‘Watch & Wait’ for Lymphoma & CLL
Description:
Some types of lymphoma and CLL grow slowly and may not need treatment right away. If this is the case for you, your doctor might suggest active monitoring or ‘Watch & Wait’, where your lymphoma is monitored until you need treatment.
Shannon Nixon, a Nurse Practitioner at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, joined Lymphoma Canada to discuss the clinical evidence and applications for Watch & Wait, some of the challenges faced by patients and ways to manage the uncertainty during this time.
