FCR?
I'm concerned about whether my husband made the right decision when he was given the FCR arm of the Flair trial as over a number of weeks been mentioned that it is not the best frontline treatment to have. We were both CLL nieve even though he had it for 19yrs and had no problems. Did we make a hasty

1st dose of Rituximab
As the title says it's my 1st dose of
Rituximab
next week to hopefully help bring the inflammation in my kidneys down. I know everyone is different with regards to side effects but what does one expect and how accurate/good is this drug.

FCR versus Ibrutinib
Hi everyone. I am new here and have posted a couple of times but have not introduced myself. I am 62, male, diagnosed with CLL in 2011. No deletions and mutated IGVH, so it is a fairly benign form of CLL. My ALC was 8,000 at diagnosis and it has crept up slowly to 18,000 over 8 years. Recently I had

CLL and related skin conditions
I am 73 and have had CLL for the last six years. I had FCR treatment some 5 years ago and more recently a milder form of FCR to keep the CLL at bay. One of the apparent side effects from the CLL has been an increase in Keratosis and Squamus Cell Carcinoma which have been treated with liquid nitrogen

Right decision? FCR vs. trial
Hi everyone I have been following and occasionally writing replies but have not introduced myself. This is a fantastic very supportive group and I am amazed but the helpful and very knowledgeable contributions my so many members. I was diagnosed in 2014 with a routine blood test at the age of 49

CLL Remission
I have been in remission for just over 5 years since finishing treatment in 2014 of FCR. Lately my lymphocytes and WBC are going up double in about 2-3 months so my Hemotologist had me do blood work for possible relapse . So now I wonder what the results will show . These test like molecular take long

EXPERIENCE OF RITUXIMAB AND TRIXUMA INFUSIONS TO CONTROL RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS - ALSO USE OF ABATACEPT with or without Methotrexate therapy
I have also heard from people who had had
Rituximab
infusions that they had a very rough and difficult time for 10/12 days post infusion and the same after the second infusion 2 weeks later. Very ill indeed.

Impact of CT and pet scan on chemo drugs
I am under chemo immunotherapy of Bendsmustin and
Rituximab
. Finished 4 cycles and next one due on 6th March. My doctor wants me to have whole body CT and pet scan to see whether lymph nodes shrank and start the 5th Cycle Infusion.

Venetoclax plus Rituximab
Hi, I'm new to this forum and am wondering if anyone knows of any trials of Venetoclax plus
Rituximab
for MZL Lymphoma ?? Can only find data from the Murano Trial for CLL. I've been offered BR treatment after
Rituximab
monotherapy failed, and am not so keen on starting on chemo road. Andrew

I am CLL patient previusly treate with FR. I need to be treated again. I need some advice please.

Rituximab
plus Fludarabina) 2- Obinutuzumab plus chlorambucil. My Doctor recommends 2nd Option. According to my Doctor, Obinutuzmab (gazyvo) can be used also for patient previously treated. Can anyone give some clue/advice about this.

Guilt-free relaxing & Rituximab!
They've decided that the Cimzia injections are not working and have planned to start me on
Rituximab
infusions at the end of this month! For now I'm on a hearty dose of steroids which has given me such relief and left me feeling amazing.
