I dont have answers but I can tell you that you are not alone. I had stage 4 non hodgkins and had 6 RCHOP. My pain started with the growth of the tumor and now the tumor is gone(but maybe back) but the pain has never gone away. I am awake for 2 days at times, I go the the emergency room and they dope me up and send me on my way with a prescription for pain meds that dont work. My Oncologist has ordered every test on earth and we cant figure out why I am still in pain, other than soft tissue damage that should have healed by now.

Interesting side note... I was reading about lymphoma and came across an artical that states Lymphoma itself can be painful. I had contributed my pain to the tissue surrounding the tumor not the actual tumor itself.
