Hi, I have a form of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma called Sezary Syndrome and have regular fortnightly immunotherapy infusions of a drug called Mogamulizumab (MOGA for short). This is not a cure but for the moment keeps my cancer under control though the downside is that it supresses my immune system. Unconnected with the cancer, I have an arthritic hip which has reached the point of needing a hip replacement operation. To have the op I will need to stop my MOGA infusions for maybe as long as two months to build up my immune system in case I get an infection during the operation. I'm in pain with the hip and would like to have the replacement operation but I am worried about stopping my MOGA in case it leads to a resurgence of my Sezary Syndrome. Any one had any similar experience? Got any thoughts please?
