 In the case of sarcoidosis, most patients with lymphadenopathy had tests which ruled out lymphoma (cancer) before they were diagnosed with that illness. In the case of sarcoidosis, most patients with lymphadenopathy had tests which ruled out lymphoma (cancer) before they were diagnosed with that illness.
  
-Patients and doctors who do not understand the nature of immunopathology that occurs during the Marshall Protocol may become alarmed when lymph nodes increase in size or do not decrease. Doctors may want to reassure themselves or the patient by doing additional biopsies to, once again, rule out lympoma. However, this invasive procedure is rarely necessary. Since lymphoma develops very slowly, a "watch and wait" tactic is more appropriate. [[home:mp:managing_immunopathology|Slowing down immunopathology]] or, if necessary, taking a break from the Protocol can also be done if anyone needs immediate reassurance that inflammation is responsible for emergent or increase lymphadenopathy while on the MP.+Patients and doctors who do not understand the nature of immunopathology that occurs during the Marshall Protocol may become alarmed when lymph nodes increase in size or do not decrease.
