Imbrevica rash
I'm thinking of talking to my doctor about Ventalexa with
Rituxan
. I need to stop this rash because; it has interfered with my quality of life. No summer fun with friends and family. Some spots are as big as nickels and quarters it's hideous.

Advice for Rituxan plus adding Arava?
The latest is
Rituxan
; however, I still deal with the fatigue and "sick" feeling. So, my dr. has added Arava to my
Rituxan
infusions. Any hope out there? I could sure use some hope. Thanks.

Follow up on haematologist appointment for sharp rise in lymphocytes.
Hello everybody hope you are all well, my visit to the haematologist today didn't go the way I was hoping, he says the sudden increase in my lymphocytes is caused by the CLL and not the cortisone, so I have to go back onto treatment, Bendamustine and
Rituxan
, it will take a couple of weeks to motivate

Rituxan, taken alone
My oncologist is recommending a
Rituxan
drip. He is hesitant to use some of the newer drugs because of my heart issues. Is anyone out there on
Rituxan
alone? If so, I would be please to learn how effective this application has been.

Update on Round 2 FCR
When I was in the hospital, they didn't get the order to split the
Rituxan
. They checked with the doctor and an hour later I was back on track. The second time, I got the schedule a few days before and
Rituxan
was not split.

My new CLL Treatment
My oncologist is recommending a drip of
Rituxan
and Bendamustine for my CLL treatment to replace Imbruvica since I had heart issues with this drug. Is anyone else getting this treatment? If so, any serious side effects?

Imbruvica and Heart Issues
I now have to make the decision as to whether continue Imbruvica or try a more potent chemo drip for my CLL like
Rituxan
, or a combination of
Rituxan
with Bendamustine, which have a long list of other side effects. Any advice?

Bad leg pain after first Rituxan
I developed very bad upper leg pain first on the right and left sides down from the hip, then this week (after 2nd
Rituxan
infusion) in the front of thighs. This is nothing like fibromyalgia pain, it is much worse. It is also disabling in that I can barely walk and really struggle on stairs.

How rare am I?
Likely, my next step. If inclined, please share your experiences. The doctors say they've had great success. My mother's nickname for me was "worry wort"; at age 57, and my mother long gone, I still carry the mantle of worry.

Rituxan / Rituximab -- gastrointestinal side effects or coinciding viral infection?
I was brought into remission with cyclophosphamide and prednisone but I've been receiving
Rituxan
infusions bi-annually for the past 2.5 years, as the drug seems to keep systemic issues in check.

CLL Treatment Sequencing by Dr. Susan O'Brien
If a patient is refractory to ibrutinib, the FDA-approved combination of idelalisib and rituximab (
Rituxan
) could be an effective second option, she added.
