I was first diagnoised December 2012 was Agressive B Cell. I had 6 chop chemos every 3 weeks. Then 2 more, because it was still in bone marrow in my right leg. Clear PET and 8 days before 2 year diagnosis, I had Marginal Zone. 6 Rituxin drips every Friday for 6 weeks and the 1 every other month for 1 year. Currently, Cancer Free. Next PET in March.

My journey sounds similar to yours. My first diagnosis of Diffuse large b cell lymphoma was in 2014 I was treated with RCHOP and went into remission. Just under a year later, the lymphoma returned. I had high dose chemo followed by a stem cell transplant. Last June the transplant doctor ordered a routing pet scan for me ( she likes to do one once a year) That last pet showed "activity" that after two biopsies proved to be Marginal zone lymphoma. I had 12 radiation treatments and will have a follow up pet on 2/23/19
