I had 4 doses of Rituxine targeted infusion and my cheeks are still swollen. Diagnosed with MALt lymphoma non gastric. I’d appreciate any advise and experience how to deal with this. I’m newly diagnosed. Don’t have any other symptoms , no sweats no pain anywhere. Thank you guys

Hi Sara6- I hope that you are feeling better! Ask the Specialist who ordered the infusion & your Primary Care Doctor about your swelling cheeks!

Sara6, I lived in Rockford for 3 or 4 years back in the early 70s. I grew up just over the border in Janesville, WI.
I have had no cheek swelling, so I’m sorry, I can’t help.
