Swollen lymph nodes
I have a history of PTLD but that was years ago (It was spurred by mono and they took me off my immunosuppressants briefly and then changed me from Neoral to
Cellcept
thereafter). I told my primary care who ordered a CT scan but insurance wouldn’t cover it.

Is rituximab safe? Thoughts on second opinions?
As well as high doses of
cellcept
and prednisone to try and moderate his immune system. Based in his recent biopsy there are no signs of remission although his disease hasn’t progressed very much. His doctor wants to do a round of Rituximab infusion.

Are antibodies still a thing?
[for reference I’m only on
Cellcept
]. My questions are, 1, has anybody been told anything about antibody levels meaning anything?

Update on my phone appt. with Neph. last Wed.
But the Neph said stay on Pred. and urgently see a Rheumatologist to get on
CellCept
. He said that without the Pred masking my eGFR it is really down to 20. He's a very nice and funny guy, I told him I didn't like that "new math" he was using.

Anyone take CellCept for CKD Stage 4 and autoimmune disease?
His theory is that the
CellCept
might slow down my immune system's destruction of my kidneys. I wondered if anyone else takes
CellCept
, and what do you all do about shoes? Do you buy some medium width and some wide width? So many things to learn.

BK virus and Low WBC
First they lowered his
CellCept
dose and two weeks later the virus had increased. So they removed
CellCept
completely and his virus levels were coming down. However, his creatinine increased from 1.2 to 1.6 so they decided to start him on IVIG which he currently is at the hospital doing.

Baricitinib??
This was prescribed as I have exhausted methotraxte, rituximab,
cellcept
treatments. I’m also on steroids (deltacortril 7.5mg) for the past 26yr and plaquenil. Many thanks

autoimmune issues related to Keytruda
I have been struggling with autoimmune hepatitis related to Keytruda for 1 1/2 years and being treated with Prednisone and
Cellcept
. I have had numerous spikes and we have found it difficult to get medication regulated and optimally to put an end to this episode of my cancer journey.

How are you living life with spouses both Vaccinated against Covid but one has a kidney transplant and one is healthy?
I cannot find direct information on this question where I am healthy and vaccinated against Covid19 and my spouse is vaccinated and has a kidney transplant but cannot make antibodies due to being on
Cellcept
antirejection med mainly.

Anyone with these neurological issues and health complications?
The rheumatologist has me on
CellCept
and Rituxan, and will be adding Actemra next week. My question is this, has anyone else experience similar rapidly progressing neuromuscular/neurological symptoms in a similar context? If so, what was the outcome?

Socializing while on Rituxan and Cellcept
I would like to hear about your experience regarding your socializing with others while on Rituxan and
Cellcept
. I know these drugs will reduce your immune system and need to be careful about being around people.

THINING SKIN AFTER KIDNEY TRANSPLANT
I am still on high dosages of
cellcept
due to rejection issues. My arms, in particular, bruise very easily. Just scratching my arms will leave red marks that take weeks to disappear. I use Cera Ve moisturizer 2x a day and Eucerin Moisturizer with SPF 30 when I go outside.
