My father aged 67 years is diagnosed with NON HODGKIN LYMPHOMA and would like to know the chances of survival and the possible positive treatment for the same in India. I request you to kindly spare your valuable time and advice me regarding the information ( a request from bottom heart) on treatment, and total cost of complete treatment

The treatment cost varies from Stage to Stage, and also from hospital to hospital.
Approach a trust run cancer center to get treatment at an affordable cost. If cost is not a factor any private cancer center in india is well equipped to handle NHL.
Early Stage NHL gives an excess of 95 percent chance of survival and advanced stage 50 to 60 percent chance.
The treatment consists of Chemotherapy (2 to 6 cycles based on stage) and Radiation ( based on stage )
