Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma

Hi I'm Linda I am 66 years old and have had NMZL for the past year and a half. I had RCVP treatment last year and Rituximab and have been in remission now for eleven months. I appreciate that this is a very rare lymphoma but I wondered if there Is anyone suffering from the same disease, I would like to hear your stories.

  • Hi Sam Yes would be good to keep in touch. My partner is still on watch and wait and has been told it could be years before teatment. Its the not knowing which is hard for us as we both work full time and had hoped to travel.I did ask his consultant about immune therapy but apparently its not yet available for mnzl. Hope your mum is still well. JAD

  • Hi JAD,

     

    i am am glad to hear your partner is still on watch and wait - long may it continue. My mum is also stage 3 and I agree the not knowing is very hard. We have a hospital appointment coming up at the end of March and as it gets closer we do feel more nervous. My mum seems well in herself and I hope after the March appt we can all go on holiday. It would be nice to get some sunshine. 

    Take care
