My father-in-law was diagnosed with this 9 days ago, on a Thursday. He died 2 days later. He was 90 years of age and did not want treatment. He went very peacefully, much respect to him and all the hospital staff.
Thanks for this video. It has been 4 yrs since my diagnosis of mantle cell. I have watched and read a number of articles but yours is very simple and easy to understand. I had the treatment you described and a stem cell transplant. I was 60 & female. I’m now 66 and have never been healthier. I am proactive re diet and exercise. I took control of my own health.
I was just diagnosed with this, it is my second cancer I also have Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Cancer. Needless to say not a good day but thank you for the information
@@starrysky1588 I work hard at being as healthy as I can. I focus on food as my main source of healthcare and keeping my organs working well. My liver and kidneys have improved greatly.

Hi Macmad, I am 5 yrs from completion of a successful treatment for mantle cell. Stem cell transplant wasn't pleasant but it has certainly done the trick. The problem I had wasn't the treatment as it is a well documented process and procedure that many people have been through with great outcomes but the after care in my case was left wanting. More information needs to be given re recovery back to normal healthy life. It has taken me 5 yrs to work out the best ways to help my self return to normal health state. I now follow a diet that includes fermented foods which have helped return my microbiome to a good state. All the antibiotics and toxic drugs destroyed my gut. My advice to you is be proactive about your after treatment health. It is as important as you treatment. Do your research about gut health. It wouldn't have taken me 5 yrs to get to where I am if I had been told this straight after my treatment finished. I am now 66 I have taken control of my health, I eat lots of fermented foods, kefir, sauerkraut, youghurt made at home high in benificial microbes . I exercise multiple times a week and I have a supportive husband, family and friends by the way I'm in Australia ,, Good luck with your treatment I know you will be ok.

Was just assigned clinical trials for Mantle Cell and even though I had been a Hematology specialist in a past life; had never even heard of this. THANKS, subscribed! :-)
Very nice explanation. You really have a talent for bringing informationen to the man. Just one thing to correct: MCL is an indolent lymphoma which can change to aggressive.
The Nordic protocol worked for me. Alternating rounds of high does R-CHOP and in hospital high dose of cytarabine. Now I’m on Rituximab maintenance which is chemo but my hair doesn’t fall out. The maintenance regime is like an insurance policy. I’m three and a half years on from diagnosis and I’m OK.
So happy to hear good news. My father diagnosed with MCL last week. The chemo plan is 3 cycle R-CHOP and 3 cycle R-DHAP and the otolog ctem cell trans. Then rtx maintance therapy. Can you givi more detail about your journey? Will be very appreciated
I've been in "complete remission" for four years now. I gather that the outcome depends on the nature of the mutations in the MCL cells. It looks like one group of patients will relapse within two years and the other group will go for up to ten years or more. The good news is that when I do relapse, there are drugs like Ibrutinab that "pushes the pause button" on the MCL cell division process. And now there is CAR-T therapy that might even be "curative." CAR-T has not been in use long enough to say just how long it is effective.
Amazing explanation. I was diagnosed with MCL in 2016 at 46 Went into remission in 2017 at 47 and relapsed in 2019 at 49 Started my 2nd treatment today of lenalidomide pill and start rituximab in 2weeks for 5weeks
I have Mantle Cell Lymphoma non-hodgkin's & was diagnosed in Stage four in 2011. I was 50 years old & a woman. Did all the chemo & radiation but the cancer was too strong & within a couple weeks symptoms returned with swollen lymph nodes & tumors on my arms & legs. I was offered a stem cell transplant & so far I'm still here in Jan 2020, almost eight years later! They tried to gather my own healthy stem cells because there's no risk of them being rejected but I didn't have any. The next best thing is collecting them from your blood family. I have three sisters from the same mom & dad but they didn't match me. They found a German woman living in Germany that matched mine! I'll be 60 in April. I hope I've gave you some hope. Only God knows when it's your time to leave this world. Hang on. Don't give up! Sending prayers up!
Have they offered you a stem cell transplant? I'm not surprised at all that your MCL came back so fast. Chemo & radiation won't cure it. It just keeps it at bay for a short time. They gave me every chemo meds available & even some experimental drugs. I went to the Mayo Clinic. They gave me all the chemo my body could handle! Try a stem cell transplant if you haven't already. Many blessings to you. ❤
I am confused about the cycles For example If patient will be treated with RCHOP RDHAP protocol 6 cycles every cycle is 21 days , is that mean that the total duration of treatment is 126 days? approximately 4 months? Am I right!
I’m only at the beginning of this video but I’m a 28 year survivor of mantle cell lymphoma I am a female and I was 38 years old at the time of onset but I’ve been re-diagnosed with a new cancer but I haven’t received the results yet but it’s in a different place so I don’t know what is going on as of this moment…..
Because the cause of the cytopenia is usually bone marrow disease. The question is “which one”?! This help us make an accurate diagnosis on which treatment depends.
Thanks for information!! I diagnosed with non Hodgkin Lymphoma b cell consist with mental cell i start getting chemotherapy R maxi chop and Retuximab and next cycle cytarabine and retuximab after 4 cycle pet scan was negative but i complete 6 cycle now dr suggest me to do autologous bone marrow, i want your suggestions for bone marrow its must needed ?
It’s not a must, but it can be of huge benefit depending on your situation...I can’t give you any info about that...I am not an expert on that issue...Talk to your doctor, try to get a piece of paper and write down your pros and cons of it, and hopefully you will see the big picture and can make a better decision...You can always get a second opinion. Wish you the best!
My dad was diagnosed with diffuse large b cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma about 2 months ago. He's been fortunate enough to be able to take his chemo at home although he still has to go to ohio state james cancer hospital to get chemo shots in his spine. I pray that they get yours into remission. It takes a very strong person to be able to go thru this.
Yes do the bone marrow transplant. Chemo drugs & radiation only last between doses but won't cure it. I have MCL non-hodgkin's. When they found mine I was in stage four. After all the chemo & radiation my body could stand they gave me a stem cell transplant. That was almost eight years ago. Btw, I was 51 when diagnosed & a woman. Many blessings to you.
The autologous stem cell transplant is like dropping an H-bomb on your immune system. The drugs they give you kill everything and the infusion of your own bone marrow cells rescues you. It’s the way to go if you don’t have co-morbidities like maybe diabetes or whatever.
My father has been diagnosed MCL . the doctor says it is in stage 3 after PET scan and he started chemo therapy. My question is is it curable in its stage 3?
I was in Stage four MCL non-hodgkin's & had a stem cell transplant. That was eight years ago. I'm a woman. That would depend on how old & how healthy he is too.
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis Sir. It has been told by the doctors that i may be suffering with side effects such as vomiting, hair falling, fever, digestive problems etc...during chemotherapy for mamtle cell lymphoma. I finished 3 cycles. I didnt have any of the side effect. What does it mean? Is it positive or negative?
I appreciate your effort but your voice sounds extremely boring, I am sorry. It really didn't help stick to the narration, the opposite I'd say. It's not even loud enough. It's a good video from. An informative point of view though.
