7. Treatment for Remission

I am so sorry to hear about your news about your husband.
I am very happy to share with you what worked.
Monjuvi and Revlimid
Monjuvi is an infusion given once every 2 weeks.
Revlimid is a pill that you take at home.

My doctor is stopping Revlimid because I have been taken it for a year.
He will continue Monjuvi for the foreseeable future.

I knew that the treatment was working before I even had a PET scan.
I could not walk without a walker but gradually I stopped using the walker.

This was helpful to me in deciding on treatments.
https://www.cancer.org/cancer/non-hodgkin-lymphoma/treating/immunotherapy.html
It lists all of the types of immunotherapies available to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
I also created a subscription through Google News because they are developing new treatments for lymphoma.

I wish you all the best.
