Rituximab and pancreas
Good Morning All, Has anybody had problems with
Rituximab
affecting their pancreas? I've been 'ill' with various things over the last few weeks, and after a blood test last week I appear to have a problem with my pancreas and am in the middle of a flare.

Just finished FIRST round FCR - what will happen next?
They waited for the third day to infuse the
Rituximab
, but I had Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine all three days. I had only one tiny issue with a scratchy throat and itchy tongue with the Rituximad which they knocked back quickly with Benadryl.

Urgent question: low platelets
My husband Murray is in a very precarious state right now and I would sure appreciate your input. Just to summarize - he is 58, diagnosed 3 1/2 years ago but with symptoms for many years before that, 13q, 11q & trisomy 12, relapsed quickly after FCR, on ibrutinib for 9 months, scheduled for stem cell

burning sensation on my scalp
I am Anja (61) from the Netherlands. I have had CLL since 2010. FCR in 2012. I am participating in the ACP 196 study since March this year. Then I started Ibrutinib. It has gone well for a while but since a month I have a very burning sensation on my scalp, and stitches and hair loss. Also nerve pains

Should men and women be treated differently?
As the study states [i]We conclude that the higher
rituximab
dose for elderly male patients abrogated the adverse prognosis of male sex without increasing toxicity.

Dr. Furman on the Diminishing Role of FCR
Hi, As we're getting ready to head to ASH this week, we wanted to post in response to a query that was posted originally on the CLLSLL io group forum. Dr. Richard Furman is their medical advisor and his response really puts the comparison of a therapy that has existed for decades with a therapy that

Round 2 FCR complete
I have completed round 2 of FCR and am past the lowest point (10 days post) so am starting to recover. The infusion days themselves were easy. I have a port so it is a simple hook up and away they go. No reactions day one and two, but by end of day 3 I was starting to feel some nausea. I take Ondansetron

Abdominal pain
I've been on watch and wait for most of that time, apart from a course of
Rituximab
about 3 years ago as my platelets had gone thru the floor and my WBC had more than doubled in the space of 6 months. Recently I've been getting sharp pains in my left abdomen, just under the bottom rib.

Definitive diagnosis
The Haematologist did tell us that treatment may be some time away and the most likely first line treatment would be
Rituximab
. Back to watch and wait now until our next clinic appointment in three months time.

Golimumab (Simponi)
Has anyone got any recent experience with above biologic, I'm so desperate for it to work as my previous treatment (
rituximab
) had no effect. The information leaflet says it can take up to 12 weeks to work, has anyone had it work any quicker?

Just diagnosed
I don't what to think. The doctor said my FISH test is negative; no chromosomal damage. He is proposing FCR early treatment to the hospital tumor board based on my age of 55. I may lose my job and insurance soon. So if FCR is an option, I hope I can get it asap.

Rituximab
Loads of things have failed, so having my first
Rituximab
infusion on Thursday, how should I expect to feel in the days following? I'm a big coward! Thanks in advance to the good folks out there.

Lenolidamide
Recently finished 5 months of Bendamustine/
Rituximab
infusions followed by 18 days of radiation. Oncologist is starting me on Lenalidamide (Revlamid) regimen in a week. Any information on side effects experienced with Lenalidamide would be very much appreciated.
