Hi guys, I've recently been under-going treatment for GPA and have responded really well to
rituximab
which I was given about 2 months ago.

Is ibrutinib enough?
Hi all, new to posting, so hope to be concise as possible. Currently on ibrutinib now for 14 months with a wonderful response other than the multitude of irritating side effects. My question is do I continue to be satisfied with where I am in treatment or should I be more aggressive in seeking a complete

After
Rituximab
infusion 3, about 3 weeks ago. A lot of muscle pain, paracetamol hardly takes the edge off. Still tired though flashes of normality and desire to work. Some days of depression.

Inequality
Normally I can cope with this all, waiting too for the
rituximab
, but someone close to me has private medical insurance (through their partner's business interests) and has had a very quick joint replacement - took them a month to get seen to.

Transferring treatment to another country
I've been told today that I need to start FCR treatment soon for my CLL. This will be my first treatment having been diagnosed in Nov 2011. Trouble is, my wife and I are planning to move back to her home country of Denmark in April. My haematologist says that they would provide the necessary papers

Any way to shrink lymph nodes without full treatment?
Hi, I was diagnosed in late November of 2014. On w&w with appointments every 3 months until my last checkup in October 2015 where they 'signed me off' for 6 months after a FISH prognostic showed no 'bad' markers. So far so good, apart from the lymph nodes in my neck and jaw. They have been swollen pretty

Update before starting 2nd FCR treatment v
Hi. My 1st treatment FCR has been challenging to say the least. The actual treatment was what I expected after reading all your messages. The normal tiredness and just feeling unwell. I noticed a rash starting and it seen my consultant who said it was an allergy to the antibiotics I was given. So not

Newly diagnosed Wegners with Polyangitis
I have been taking steroids and
Rituximab
which have put it into remission. As my immune system is suppressed I've been advised not to travel as I could pick up infection from flying by being in confined spaces. Has anyone else living with Wegners got around this problem?

Month 6 on iFCR and Going Strong
I last posted four months ago when my wife "NoMoreCLL" began the Ibrutinib plus FCR Study. We're here at the Farber today, on Day 1 of 3, Month 6 of 6 for the final set of infusions. As of mid-Study (end of Cycle 3) she had MRD Positive for both blood and marrow...then on the cusp of MRD Negativity

Out of remission?
My very first post but I have been following for awhile. Exactly when is a person considered out of remission? I was Dx with CLL in 2012. 4 rounds of FCR in 2013. In remission for almost three years. But for the last year my blood numbers have been trending up. White count now 8.2, ACL 3. If they rise

FCR follow up is CT necessary?
Hi, we are coming up on two years since my husband finished a 6 month treatment with fcr. We had been told he had a "complete response with incomplete recovery of the bone marrow." His blood counts improve some then dwindle some; currently neutropenic again barely above 500. His onco has been insisting

Rituximab and bendamustine
Is anyone else on
rituximab
and bendamustine at the moment? I just started last Thursday- a half dose of each of them on 2 successive days. Feeling totally steamrollered for Christmas now!! I did have fludarabine and
rituximab
nearly 5 years ago with great results.

The meeting ended with an exciting discussion of the development of vaccines against cancer that have the potential to transform treatment options in much the same way monoclonal antiboides have since the advent of

World Cancer Day
Hence, CLL and other liquid cancers such as CML (chronic myelogenous leukemia) are the poster children for the development of biological (think monoclonal antibodies such as
rituximab
) and targeted non-chemo therapies such as imatinib or Gleevec for CML (the first truly targeted therapy and a true miracle

Rituxin
I was wondering for those who have done Rituxin/
Rituximab
how soon you saw results, if any? I finished on the 30tb of December (with a week off in between my 3rd and 4th treatment because I had to get IVIG). My platelets keep dropping. Thank you.

Sciatica??
Husband has GPA (Wegener's) which is just about going into remission with 3rd session of
Rituximab
on 30 Dec. Prednisilone is now down to 7mg per day. All good news but........since July he has been suffering from what we believe is Sciatica. Knee Xray & MRI of back show no squashed nerve.

Sharing the good news
I got an infusion with
Rituximab
(combined with Prednison to prevent side effects). Yesterday I had my 4th infusion of
Rituximab
. I have to take the Venetoclax pills every day for a period of 2 years. Until now everything is going very well.
