Maintenance immunotherapy (Rituximab)

I was prescribed 12 sessions of maintenance immunotherapy to take place every 8 weeks. This week my 4th session was cancelled due to fears of the effect of the corona virus, with my compromised immune system, if I contracted it.

 

  • Hi Valdemiro,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to read that your session was cancelled. There is a lot of uncertainty at the moment and of course the virus situation is causing a lot of added difficulty and worry for people. Hopefully you've had the session rescheduled or will do soon. In the meatime do discuss any particular medical concerns with your doctor as required.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
