Lachine, QC

Two years ago, I was diagnosed with Marginal Zone lymphoma. I was told that I have cancer in my bone marrow- about 10-20%- My oncologist put me on the watch and wait as I have no symptoms. Does anyone else have cancer in their bone marrow, and did you receive any treatment (chemo?)

Rituxan As A Follow Up Treatment

A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Kilgore, TX

May be taking rituxan as a follow up treatment. Just finished up r chops 5 weeks ago. Are there side effects? I am in remission but still have a very small amount of non hodgkins lymphoma left in mid section. Will it get rid of it or does it keep it from growing? What are the chances of it coming back while on this drug?Tks, becky
