It was explained to me that explaining b-cell rebound for people who are on Rituxan is counter intuitive.
People whose b-cells rebound quickly are less likely to have more symptoms.
People whose b-cells rebound slowly are more likely to have more symptoms.
I have had very few symptoms the last three years. I've had other issues (broken foot, bad knee, etc.), but wegs has been quiet. I've had 14 RTX infusions now, and my doc will keep ordering them until there is reason to stop (FDA protocol changes, Insurance, etc.)
RTX protocol is to have a treatment (2 infusions two weeks apart) every six months. Maybe you are due for another RTX round?
I'd definitely go in to have the lump checked out!!
Take care!!!
