Dear Sir/Mam,
My father diagnosed by High grade B non Hodgkin lymphoma and expired also My mother diagnosed by Carcinoma vagina - Neuroendocrine carcinoma and expired. Both were diagnosed recently after 58 years with almost stage-4 and passed away even after chemo therapy & Radio therapy. Before that we did not witnessed any symptoms till the age of 58 and also not witnessed in earlier generation also.
My question is how much chance that I may affect by this any one of it and what medical check up to be taken at this age (32 years) to ensure whether I'm affected or not ? Also Any chance in future to affect by these decease? Whether at this age can it be diagnosed if I'm affected?
Regards,
Arun Karunanidhi.
