Patient Resources
There is information available on the internet, and if you wish, you may research the medical literature. We would like to caution you that some sources on the internet may contain misinformation. In addition, it is important that you read information carefully because it may not be relevant to your situation. For example, early stage Mycosis Fungoides differ greatly from late stage Mycosis Fungoides, so care must be taken when trying to understand your disease. Some publicly accessible resources are listed below.

- The Patient Access Network Foundation is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, unaffiliated with any of its donors, dedicated to assisting insured patients who cannot afford the out-of-pocket costs associated with their treatment needs.
