Hello Richard,
Appreciate your answer, had a recent PET scan in April that showed increase in pleural lymph nodes with increase in pleural effusion and just had thoracentesis. Was first diagnosed with FL in 2005, had rituxin with CHOP, remission until 2020 and was on watch/wait. Sloan now recommended Rituxin with Revlimid/Immunomodulator starting next wk and 2nd opinion at NYU agreed with treatment plan.
Take care Richard πŸ™‚
