I had Bendamustine and the immunotherapy Gazyva for 6 months (July 2024-December 2024) and with stage 4 follicular lymphoma, it brought me to remission.

Hi Elizabeth, I’m sending prayers your way. It can be a scary time, so try to keep a positive attitude about your treatment and life in general. Let friends and family help and support you when you need it. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Those that love you want to, but don’t always know what you need.
You’ve got this! 💗💝💖
That is exactly my ailment, stage 4, and treatment. Have done 2 of 6 treatments thus far.
I put mine n remission with red light therapy, turmeric liquid, brushing & flushing lymph system. Am currently incorporating natural herbs such as dandelion tea. There's a bunch of natural flushes. Look as if your flushing parasites. Lemon water to balance ph. I sweated last week, first time in 6 years. Oregano oil, black seed oil, black pepper, cayenne pepper etc wormwood tea, essaics tea.
