Hi Linda
You will be fine. I know it is hard going through all this stuff but it will all work out wonderful for you. Just keep smiling and each day will be better.
I was diagnosed with Follicular Non Hudgkin's Lymphoma last year in November. Had 4 Month Chemo with Bendeka. Now in remission, and was recommended to do a 2 year maintenance treatment with [[treatment:Rituxan Hycela:5c648bd265df61506ecba9a7]]. Anybody else has the same treatment? Is it standard to do it after chemo? What are the long term side effects? I feel fine, but still worry about this
Anybody completed the 2 year? Was any recurrence of the cancer shortly after finishing treatment.… read more
I tried the maintenance once and mine recurred while on it. I do much better just getting a round of rituxan when it recurs.
I was diagnosed with cutaneous B cell lymphoma. Lesions occur mainly on my scalp and lower back.
I had thinning hair after treatment, but my dermatologist said it is growing back.

What are the chances of it coming back while on this drug?Tks, becky
Wow, thanks. You just can never give up. I'm glad you and your dr was very proactive as I will be too.
Hi friends, I recently had a bone marrow biopsy that showed that 37% of my bone marrow is being affected by the marginal zone lymphoma. My doctor has recommended 4 weekly treatments of Rituximab. I am curious to know from any of you who have had treatments with this what your experience has been and what I should expect. My understanding is that some people have allergic reactions to the treatment and that it also affects your immune system, but other than that I don’t know much. Thanks in… read more

I have Splenic marginal zone lymphoma. It was tracked for several years, as "my bloodwork got worse and my spleen got better". Eventually I had 6 treatments with Rituximab in 2019.

I am in remission from DLBCL. I was treated with Rituxin infusion every 21 days for 6 cycles. Also I took imbruvica and Revlimid orally. I am 88 y/o . Anyone else have similar TX?
Thank you for your reply. This is good to know. I’ve already stopped driving. I’m 90 and have marginal zone b lymphoma. I had an allergic reaction to my first trial infusion of rituxibam but now… read more
