Yes and No. Cancer is a word that covers many individual diseases and within a subset Lymphoma there are deadly ones and relatively benign ones. However depending on when it is diagnosed and at what stage the cancer is at will determine if the cancer can be treated. If you have a benign form of cancer but it has progressed so far when it is finally diagnosed it might not be able to be treated. On the other hand you could have a bad type but caught early and with good treatment it might be completely eradicated. Early diagnosis, follow the treatment and watch for any signs are the watchwords.

What are the effects of lymphoma?
Lymphoma is a disease of a part of the immune system, the lymph nodes. Normally, the lymph nodes serve as "sentries" of our bodies defense against disease. When bacteria or viruses enter the body, the cells of the lymph node divide to fight it. However, sometimes the cells in a lymph node begin to multiply without any reason, and make a tumor. Lymphoma causes a lump or mass, although sometimes it's internal and can't be felt by examination. Lymphoma may also cause the patient to be tired, weak, prone to infections, or have a fever. There may be weight loss. Lymphoma has many different types; some are easily treated, while some are very deadly.
