My wife had Yescarta in June for refractory single hit DLBCL after successful R-CHOP and consolidative radiation last year and Polar-R immunotherapy as a bridging treatment. We are happy to report that her roughly 6 month CT last week is still clear of any disease. Her 90 day PET/CT was also clear and she has been deemed in remission since the 90 day scan. And up until this week's labs, her WBC and Neutrophils just haven't been cooperating but are now at the highest since before her apheresis and CAR-T. Still, she's immunocompromised and needs to be careful and does experience muscle/joint aches and pains but exercise, stretching and a cortocosteroid shot in her left shoulder have helped somewhat. Is still on the mend but has been able to be physically active for a few months now just maybe a little less than her old self. It's turning out to be a great ending to a tumultuous year.
