@bloodguy Yes, the treatment was successful, no doubt. But at 71, when the clinical progress has been excellent, even after all cancer treatment was stopped for two months, I personally would prefer monitoring to commencing maintenance treatment. Will discuss with the treating oncologist and ascertain the trade off between the incremental benefits of treatment versus the risk of infection caused by depletion of B Cells. Yes, second opinion is also on the table.
