Nate had an appointment at Northwestern in October that was uneventful. His lab work is looking good and he will go back in 6 months, which will put him at 1 year post-transplant. He will also have a PET scan done before that visit.
He had his rituxan infusion today and saw the doctor. The infusion only took 3 hours- a new record. The doctor said the new recommendation from the MCL experts is rituxan every 2 months for 3 years instead of 2 years. He feels okay about that, just 3 years seems like a long time. Thankfully the rituxan doesn't cause side effects and is easy to tolerate. Please continue to pray that the rituxan does its thing and keeps the cancer away.
That sounds like a good report! We pray it keeps Nate cancer free.
