Non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Also known as: NHL

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is cancer of the lymphatic system, which is part of the immune system. The lymphatic system is found throughout the body. When you have this disease, cells in the lymphatic system either grow without control or do not die as cells normally do.

The Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Program at Providence Cancer Center is dedicated to building a team of providers with the experience and ability to attract cutting-edge lymphoma research concepts  to deliver the best care and highest quality survival for patients with Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.

Ask an Expert: Chemotherapy and insomnia

Q: I'm undergoing chemo, and though I am experiencing heavy-duty fatigue, I am also suffering from insomnia! Sometimes it's hard to fall asleep; other nights I wake up around 3 a.m. for an hour or two. My medical oncologist said chemo can disrupt the sleep-wake cycle and prescribed Ambien. I don't like the idea of relying on a sleeping pill. Anything else I can do?
