Members shared their experiences with RICE chemotherapy for lymphoma, with most reporting manageable side effects like fatigue and mild nausea that were well-controlled with medication, though one member noted needing to slow the Rituxan infusion due to itching. Several members described receiving RICE as outpatient treatment, while stem cell transplants typically required hospital stays of about two weeks when using the patient's own cells, with donor transplants taking longer. A recurring theme was the variability in individual treatment responses, with some members achieving remission after two RICE rounds, others needing alternative therapies like CAR-T, and one member finding success with Rituxan alone after seeking a second opinion.
