"After the first month once every week. Now every other month. Total of 7 infusions so far. This month I am weak, muscel pains, stomach issues, memory not so good, forgetful, clumsy, dropping stuff for no reason. No energy or I will wake and forget about being sick and I tire easy. Tumor in mesentery has shunk fron 1.6 to 0.9. I guess it is working. Not fun though."

"I am a 76-year-old white male. I started Rituximab and Blitzima IV treatment in March 2023. Since November 2023, I have been on maintenance treatment. Apart from a red skin rash all over my body after the very first treatment, I had no side effects whatsoever. According to my oncologist, it is working perfectly. Regular blood tests back this up."

Rituxan (rituximab) "Rituxan with Bendamustine put me back into remission. Prior to treatment, I had a host of B symptoms. They disappeared following the first round of treatment. I'm currently on maintenance doses of IV Rituxan, bimonthly."
