Yaaaa marm, good for you! I hope your new meds work good and offer relief. Keep us posted on your progress and good luck.

Yay!

Well done you. Now as Allanah says, take it easy until the 11th. I'm having my 12th cycle that day so will think of you. Btw the second rip is easier and quicker than the first.

Take care kikideelili x

Thank you everyone. Yesterday was a zero energy one. No pain and no energy. Has anyone found anything that helps with this problem.

OK. Just hoping I've seen the last of the week exhaustion. You're OK.

The Rituximab is killing your B cells. That's what's making you tired. No quick fix I'm affraid.
