My brother has MCD and the doctor says it increases the risk of lymphoma cancer. I am concerned this will happen to him. We were super careful during COVID, and I just feel like we are constantly dodging and taking all the precautions to keep him the healthiest possible. But lymphoma, thats something we can't prevent. Has anyone here with MCD developed lymphoma? How long after your CD diagnosis did you find it?

thanks
