I have just recently had my initial diagnosis of Hodgkin's Lymphoma changed to Angioimmunoblastic T-Cell Lymphoma(AIL). This only after 8 cycles of AVBD chemotherapy for the Hodgkins that quickly relapsed. I was sent to another cancer center for a stem cell transplant where the pathologist quickly discerned that my initial diagnosis was incorrect.

I know that AIL is extremely rare with a dismal prognosis. Has anyone here fought this disease and what types of treatment protocols were used?
