    Could anyone give me advice.

    I Have NHL, diagnosed in 2005. Finished R-CVP treatment on Hogmany 2009, now on Rituximab maintenance therapy every 12 weeks. I'd quite like to get a new tattoo but don't know if there are complications with treatment.

    Thanks

    Hi everyone

    Hi everyone. I'm looking for some advice if anyone can help. I am due to start maintenance therapy next week. I've to have IV Rituximab every 3 months. I'm feeling a bit down as I thought I had finished my treatment for a bit. I was thinking of trying St Johns Wort. Anyone know of any side effects or reasons why I shouldn't?
