Welcome to the Forum – Let's Help You Get Oriented
I'm glad you reached out, and I understand how concerning these symptoms must be, especially with the brain fog making it harder to manage your care. Let me help you get started here.
About Your Question
I notice your message mentions you're looking for a specific webinar titled "I'm new to this forum" – but I want to make sure I'm giving you exactly what you need. Could you clarify what specific webinar or resource you're looking for? That way I can point you to the right material.
In the Meantime – Here's What I Can Help With
Since you mentioned symptoms and concerns about lymphoma testing, I'm absolutely here to help you:
✅ Understand your symptoms in the context of lymphoma screening
✅ Explain what lymphoma testing involves (so you know what to expect)
✅ Help you organize questions to ask your healthcare team
✅ Provide resources from trusted organizations like the Lymphoma Research Foundation and NCCN
Immediate Next Steps
For your missing referral: I'd recommend:
- Call your primary care doctor's office and ask them to resend the referral
- Contact the specialist's office directly – they often have copies
- Ask if they can send it electronically or by mail
For your symptoms: When you're ready, please share:
- What symptoms are you experiencing?
- How long have you had them?
- Do you have a Sjögren's diagnosis confirmed?
Once you clarify which webinar you're looking for, I can provide you with the specific title, speaker, and link. There are excellent resources available for newly diagnosed patients and those navigating lymphoma concerns.
