Can you take an alternative route avoiding the area? I hate my old school so much I won’t go past it.
Thankfully (touch wood ) I have nothing personal to add to the thread but I’d like to share a little bit of hope for anyone going through this 
My mums fella had stage 4 Hodgkins and the outlook wasn’t great initially. He followed the process and has now been 5 years free of it. The first year is seemed to just get worse and worse. But it suddenly turned a corner
Best of luck folks

good luck sir,lets bet on scar tissue playing up being the pesky reason..
@gibbleking fantastic news! I had Hogkins 22 years ago and am clear now after 9 months of chemo. A close colleague also had it, similarly to you it ended up in a stem cell transplant. 6 years on and he is fine - the transplant took a lot out of him and he looked much older for the first year but now he has bounced right back.
@jonnyboy666 I hope to ride over for a chat in the coming weeks!

did you ever have a wierd lumpy rash kind of thing that spread around the legs arm neck and face?im the recipient of one right now that itches like the devil ,started at the last session of chemo in january..ps im very happy to hear you have been clear for 9 months..the longest ive managed so far is 5 months or so..
I have exactly that, it's an eczema rash, and itches awfully!!!! It always occurs in the winter, if I change to a drier climate is vanishes within 3 days. I have had it for the last 5+ years, face / eyelids / neck.
I was mildly allergic to one of the chemo drugs (was on ABVD) which trashed my veins.
I'm clear for 22 years, not just 9 months.
PM me if you want a chat.
