@audreyzm While you’re waiting for other members to reply about a 2nd diagnosis for MZL, I wanted to welcome you to Mayo Connect. I’m sorry you’ve had a double whammy with this disease after having such a positive response with the Rituximab for the first diagnosis.
But what a crazy story with your spleen! Kudos for pushing to get answers for that unexplained severe pain. You know your body better than anyone else and it was telling you something was definitely not right! I have to know, did you ever report the findings to the doctor who was so dismissive about your pain?
I hope you recover quickly from your radiation treatments. The fatigue should slowly disappear within a couple weeks. Rest often, eat healthy proteins, fresh fruits and veggies high in antioxidants and drink plenty of water daily…aiming for at least 64 ounces. Was the radiation localized?
