Maintenance Program With [[treatment:Rituxan Hycela:5c648bd265df61506ecba9a7]]
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.

Is Anyone Currently On The 3 Year Maintenance For Mantle Cell Using Rituximab And The Pill Zanibrutinib? How Are You Doing?
My Doctor in Virginia recommended I continue with the rituximab for 3 years, but added Zanibrutinib pill. If you did just the rituximab did you MCL flare up again? My new doctor wants to keep the Zanibrutinib pill on the back burner and begin if needed. It's expensive holy moly.
