I had Hodgkins Lymphoma which used to be called Hodgkins Disease. Why did they change this? - hodgkins disease
I wonder whether we really had cancer or some kind of something else - like a disease. Hodgkin's is now 93% curable. It is as if no other type of cancer. I wonder whether the case in some way by cancer. Although the treatment is the same, but the results seem so different. Plus I had a psychic reading and thought I never had cancer.

What we show the "psychic" bad, but she had cancer. The lymphoma cells in the presence of Reed-Sternberg (which differs from non-Hodge Hodge.)
It is said also known as Hodgkin's disease, but as an answer before me, a little more logical, lymphoma, as they say it is.
Another reason could be called Hodgkin's lymphoma, our mental health. They say that Hodgkin's disease, people think: "Oh, no, cancer is a disease. It is curable." Believe me, I've heard that before.
Although there is a high cure rate does not mean that it is dangerous. And 93% is high, but it seems a bit too high compared to the statistics I've seen.
Phases I and II-85-90%
Stage III and IIII-80-85%
High, but not cured. He is not cured until he has a cure rate of 100%.
Many good responses. As noted by Jenn (Jenn and knows whereof he speaks) that 90% survival for early stage disease.
Hodgkin's disease - the name of Thomas Hodgkin in 1832 - is the same as the Hodgkin's lymphoma, as others have said. Both names are still used.
It was a fatal disease before the 1940s, when the influence of localized disease began reporting ~ 25% 5-year survival. If you have not received any treatment, the disease could have ended his life. The success of chemotherapy in the 1950s and 60 brought the field of medical oncology in the chemotherapy used to treat malignant tumors.
So many people ask about this website - "If there is a cure for cancer?" It makes me cringe when I see this question. How do people think of Lance Armstrong survived cancer widely metastatic testicular win 7 Tour de France race? And what about the high cure rates for Hodgkin's lymphoma, which is surely a fatal malignancy?
We can cure some cancers. I'm glad a have a survival rate as good, but you should consider himself very lucky, a treatable and curable, have kind of cancer.
The answer is that they have begun to diagnosis and treatment of lymphoma, they realized there were 2 very different forms of the disease and the difference is the type of cells involved.
So I called non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (deadly) and Hodgkin's disease.
Some people have started calling the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is the fact that it really highlights cancer, but the other word correctly.
