my remission has been over 3 years with PET scans suggested by
MD Anderson every 3 months as became sensitive/allergic to Rituxin
I did the first six month course but a year later was told to do just Rituxin once every few months-got way too sick -so just watching by PETSCAN
MDAnderson is tops on Mantle cell but local onocologists would not follow thru with direction given which can be disconcerting. So thankful I could call and communicate with Dr Wang or Chen at MDAnderson!!!
