Hi, I started rituximab infusions last month & felt a bit rough after both. My joints felt better the day after too but it didn't take long for the steroids to wear off. Playing the waiting game now & willing it to kick in quickly! Trying hard to be patient but flaring all over the place.
I hope your second infusion goes well & rituximab is the one for you. Take care xx
I started in March, no improvement as yet. I went to see the nurse yesterday as she said that it can take up to 27 weeks for improvement also having a flare after the first set seems to be normal as the drug starts to work.
