I’m 87 with SMZL and being treated with Ibrutinib 560mg daily dose. My question is would a medical oncologist be recommended to monitor my care?
Hi Walter,
Did an oncologist prescribe the Ibrutinib? I have read about it.
I am 69 and have extra nodal and nodal MZL. The oncologist said
he may have me take the oral medication, zanaubrutinib. It is the latest FDA approved. I have a pet scan in April.
Yes, you do need to see an oncologist, I feel, whose specialty is lymphoma. I see a neuro oncologist and a lymphoma specialist. The first growth was on my forehead so a neuro Dr sees me every 3 months with an mri
since it was near my brain…
Take care,

Is There Any In The Group That Has SMZL, Splenic Marginal Zone Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma?
Hi, I Had My Spleen Removed In August 2025. I Have SMZL. Now I Have 3 More Lymph Nodes Involved. I Just Don't Know If This Is Normal.
