How long a patient can live after chemotherapy for lymphoma depends on the early, middle and late stages of lymphoma and the sensitivity of individual patients to chemotherapy drugs. 1. In early stage of lymphoma, if the patient is very sensitive to chemotherapy drugs, after giving 6-8 cycles of chemotherapy, some patients may be completely cured of lymphoma. In this case, patients can survive for 30-40 years. 2. If patients with middle stage of lymphoma are more seriously ill and their sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs is poor, their life expectancy is usually about 3-5 years even after 6-8 cycles of chemotherapy. 3. Patients with advanced lymphoma, at this time, their general condition is poor and their tolerance to side effects of chemotherapy drugs is obviously reduced. Giving chemotherapy treatment not only can not prolong the life of patients, but also may aggravate liver and kidney function damage due to toxic side effects of chemotherapy drugs, and some patients may die 3-6 months after chemotherapy.
