Yuvraj Singh has a tumour

Lymphoma is malignant how much you **** around, and will need chemotherapy (classically CHOPR regimen). This must be a highly differentiated tumor and hence low in malignancy. But unlike many malignancies lymphoma has >95% cure rate,

I remember reading just after the WC how he had vomited a lot during the tournament, but it was reported as evidence of how badly he and team India wanted to win the WC and how much it meant to him.


Nope, was actually a tumour :-O

Yeah, WAFG!

Wish him a quick recovery and a long healthy life ahead.

From my first-hand experience I can tell that even the best of doctors in the field sometimes make errors in differentiating between malignant and non-malignant in the initial phase. I hope this is not one such case.

Yea I think in a lot of cases with healthy young people, it's probably easy to miss the symptoms.

:( Very sad news that Yuvraj has malignant cancer.
Yuvraj Singh diagnosed with cancer: Reports - The Times of India

Indian cricket lovers got a big setback as dashing all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has been diagnosed with cancer according to media reports.

According to reports, Yuvraj, who left for the US on January 26th, has a tumor between his lung and the heart and is undergoing chemotherapy in the US.

His tumour was detected in October but it was said to non-malignant. But it has now reportedly been diagnosed as malignant.

Earlier on Saturday, Yuvraj said that he will draw inspiration from cycling champion Lance Armstrong to battle his lung tumour. According to the Gulf News, Yuvraj's much-anticipated return to cricket will hence be delayed further.

Armstrong is a seven-time Tour de France winner and is a cancer survivor. Yuvraj said that he was reading Armstrong's book - It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life and hoped to be motivated enough to pull through is current illness.

Even though he exuded confidence after the game, the national selectors did not want to "rush" him into a comeback for the one-day series in Australia while he has been also ruled out of the Asia Cup (March) and the Indian Premier League (IPL) in April-May.

There were also reports that he is currently consulting oncologists in the US and might have surgery to remove the non-malignant growth, which is located between the lung and the heart.

Yuvraj, however, said that it was not true that he was undergoing surgery, and was only receiving medication.

The Indian Cricket Board, which has been footing the bills for his treatment, has rallied round him well - saying they are willing to bid their time for a fully fit Yuvraj Singh.

On Saturday, Sahara India also pulled out from the ownership of IPL franchise Pune Warriors just hours before the players' auction after they have been denied replacement for injured Yuvraj Singh for the upcoming fifth edition of Indian Premier League. (They are still going to pay his fees for this year).

"It was an emotional decision for us to start this sponsorship but our emotions were never appreciated and many genuine situations were not given due consideration at all," Sahara said
I hope he gets well as soon as possible.He has been a champion ODI Player for India.
