Hi,

I had 4 rituxan infusions last June, and my counts have been great. But, I have now had two episodes were I black out. I am 72 yrs old and have never blacked out before in my life. I have been told I have vasovagal. I just wondered if anyone experience this after taking rituxan infusions?

Thanks
