No I didn’t have any side effects. Although before I started treatment I was reading up on the side effects. They made me very stressed and afraid. In Feb I was put on an infusion treatment of
Obinutuzumab drug. (GAZYVA) I was on this 3/7-7/26/22. Also no real side effects. I will be on the pill for at least 4 more years.
When I told my first local oncologist (I found another oncologist for a 2nd opinion , he put me on a trial and started this treatment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center ) that I was prescribed the Acalabrutinib she said they have very good results with it.
I was on watch and wait for 9 months.
I hope your treatment runs as smoothly as mine did. I am very grateful and extremely thankful for my support system.
Please keep in touch. If you have any other questions for me don’t hesitate to reach out.

Sorry great day
