Members connected warmly over the question of how quickly follicular lymphoma grows after partial remission, with one member inspiring the community by sharing her journey from stage 3 diagnosis in 1998 through multiple relapses every 18 months to achieving complete remission for over 11 years through a clinical trial. Another member shared his positive experience with Rituximab targeted therapy in Thailand, describing stable lymphoma and good blood test results despite the long treatment days. A recurring theme was the power of courage, determination, and maintaining a positive attitude throughout the ups and downs of lymphoma treatment.

I was originally diagnosed with stage 3 follicular NHL in 1998. I went 3 years with no treatment, and I was treated with Rituxan then and several times after. I relapsed about every 18 months, with some complications and harsher chemo at times. A clinical trial of Ibrutanib finally put me in complete remission for 11+ years. I'm still NED at this time!
Love and hugs,
