Let’s Talk Lymphedema…❓
Has anyone experienced lymphedema either before chemo or during? What did you or your doctor do for it? Any at home tips?

Follicular Lymphoma And Covid-19
I completed chemotherapy (Gazyva and Bendeka) for follicular lymphoma last October and have been in remission. Four weeks ago (August 8) I contracted Covid-19.

How Long Do The Side Effects Last After Completing 6 Cycles Of BR Chemo/immunotherapy?
I just finished 6 cycles of BR chemo/immunotherapy. I'm still having several lasting side effects: mainly fatigue, nausea/vomiting, incontinence and hip pain.
My question is: how long after completing chemo do these side effects last? When should I hope to feel better?

We're you getting Neulasta shots after your treatments every month? I had no appetite and kind of a yucky feeling for about a week after each round of B/R.
