Follicular NHL?

I have follicular nonhodgkins and I start chemo treatment in 3 days. I had 102 ounces of plurel fluid, taken off my left lung, now I have shortness of breath. I'm just 3 days out from chemo. Would a Medrol dose pack taken while taking chemo cause a problem? I have had an echocardiogram, an EKG, a kidney test, and a dozen blood work. They see very little fluid.

Please check with your cancer doctor.
Thanks.

Your condition is best handled by the team of health care experts taking care of you. It is dangerous to ask other doctors about what to do when you are being treated for NHL. You need one team that provides oversight and management for your condition. I strongly discourage doing anything without their knowledge and would seek their input.
