Rituximab experience?
I have just started
Rituximab
infusions. This has made me feel even more fatigued and weak. Just hope it helps in the longer term. Does anyone have experience of this treatment? If so did you tolerate it ok? How did things work out for you? Thanks in advance 😀

Rituximab
does anyone have any advice about the effect of the COVID vaccine on
Rituximab
. I had my first infusion in July which has been successful for me and given me a pain free life. So don’t want to ‘mess it up by risking Covid vaccine if it has a negative effect. thanks

Any one here with this particular ANA ?
I had just had a set of
Rituximab
5 days prior, so my antibodies should have been really knocked down. My anti cardiolipin was still a bit elevated at 26 I think. ( usually it’s down from 38 to 0. ) I actually don’t know anything about this antibody- I read the SS is Sjögren specific?

Rituximab
Dear All, My 25 year old daughter with SLE has been asked to start
rituximab
infusion due to the renal team not being happy with the amount of protein in urine and think her current immune suppressants are no longer effective. May I please ask if anyone is on
rituximab
and any advice?

rituximab
I wondered if anyone has had
rituximab
infusions for their myositis and what the experience has been like - impact on disease, side effects, infections due to immune suppression, infusion process itself? The rheumatologist has given this as a potential option and I’m seeking some insight.

Rituximab and pets
I’m currently undergoing treatment with
Rituximab
and am considering adopting a cat. I would appreciate any insights regarding the risk of increased infections or other concerns related to these furry companions. Thank you.

Rituximab infusion tomorrow !!
But I have my first
rituximab
infusion tomorrow, I was wondering if anyone had any tips logistics-wise. Also, do they expect you to lie still for 6 hours and can you go to the bathroom? I figured I'd bring lunch, a jacket, a book, or a sketchbook and listen to music.

Anti viral?
I'm on
rituximab
and azathioprine aswell as prednisolone. I've not yet done a test but have been feeling breathless and coughing more than normal. I'm not allowed to have my covid or flu vaccinations due to my recent
rituximab
infusion.

Covid Vaccines - Update
Hi All I’ve been trying to find out when we’re next due a vaccine as I’m also due another dose of
rituximab
and was hoping to get it done first. Just seen an update on the NHS website , immune suppressed will be offered from April.

Rituximab - any advice?
At my rheumatology appointment yesterday my consultant came to the conclusion that amgevita has not worked for me and we agreed I would stop that and start
Rituximab
. Has this worked well for others? I understand that this is given by infusion every 6 months and wondered how people found that?

Rituximab and hair loss
Hello, I've just had my first two doses of
Rituximab
in February, and I've been noticing more hair loss when I wash my hair. Has anyone had this, and do you have any remedies? I have fine hair too. I'm on a mix of methotrexate, prednisolone and hydroxychloroquine. Many thanks!

Measles outbreak
I'm on
rituximab
, azathioprine and prednisolone. I'm up-to-date with vaccinations bit concerned about the measles outbreak in my area. Am I at risk due to being immunocompromised?
