This after Fludarabine/Cytoxan/
Rituximab
x 5 with only a brief response. Starting on one of the first phase II trials of ibrutinib in 2012, now on acalabrutinib, it's been a good run.

Advice needed please
I last had
Rituximab
in June 21, I then in November had Covid with 2 hospital admissions. I now have long Covid. I cannot have RTmab because my Immune system is so low, Igg 3.4IgA 0.48 IgM 0.42p Yesterday I was walking around and felt extreme fatigue, hip joint pain.

Finally...🥳
I am more than grateful that this was picked up and I had all the tests etc needed, but it was a real slog as it coincided with
Rituximab
having worn off so went into a very severe flare where at times I felt so low it was hard to pick myself up again but I have previously posted about that.

Retuximab
Hi guys, Hope you all had a happy healthy New Year :) Unfortunately I had flu, then Covid and what seemed like a virus :( I just started
Rituximab
infusion 26th September therefore according to the information booklet I’m not meant to have live vaccines (flu, Covid) for 6months after, hence probably

Rituximab doses
This a question for anyone on
rituximab
, I’m really interested in the dose you receive . I’ve been having
rituximab
for years, sometimes over 4 weeks a time sometimes at 2. I don’t react very well on the day so have to have the infusions very slowly .

Rituximab failure ?
Hi Folks, my consultant confirmed yesterday that
Rituximab
has done very little for me, CRP has come down a bit to 38 from over 100 but every day I still struggle to get about. Starting to get properly depressed about it all to be honest. What can they do next ?

More evidence for vaccination
Among the small subgroup of patients using
rituximab
, we could not confirm a similar direction or magnitude of effect (1·37; 0·32–5·86). [/i] [i]ref: November 15, 2023 https://doi.org/10.1016/S2665-9913(23)00272-2[/i] There is fatigue amongst us all - too many injections!

CLL survival times ARE improving, thanks to BTK and BCL-2 inhibitors

Rituximab- my experience.
I had
Rituximab
+ dexamethasone+cyclophosphamide after that for 12 cycles over 10 months. (I had bad nausea with the cyclophosphamide for up to a week after each infusion). Remission again only lasted around 3 months.

Update
In the meantime I also had lymphoma and received four R-CHOP chemo cycles, two cycles of CNS prophylaxis and two additional cycles of monoclonal antibodies
Rituximab
only. Pet/CT shows complete remission. So this is something to celebrate and fills my tanks of hope for the future.

Rituximab and Chest Infections
Not long after my first 2
Rituximab
infusions I was diagnosed with a chest infection and given antibiotics. The GP booked me in for a chest X-ray and 3 or 4 weeks later that showed lingering infection so I had another week if antibiotics.

Similarities/difference with Waldenstroms? ?
Rituximab
alone. Effective. Neuropathy much improved, but relapse after relatively short period (3 months). Now newly started on
Rituximab
+ Ibrutinib. I 'm not feeling any response yet with the neuropathy but my monoclonal spike is going down! đź‘Ť
