Methotrexate and wine
I also get
rituxan
infusions For both the RA and the MS. I cannot go onto many of the RA biologics since side effect can be demylation and my MS already has that covered😜 I feel like I need to go back to grade school so Sister Mary Suffering can smack my hand for daring to question.

ITP – Need more options
I have tried, Prednisone, IVIG,
Rituxan
, MMF, Nplate and a few others I can't think of at the moment. The only drug that seems to work is Nplate although the weekly Dr visit are not fun. Without drugs my count is usually 4-17. My new goal is to get the splenectomy.

Headaches ??
He took me off of my
Rituxan
2 year maintenance plan. I return to see him in this month for follow up - he wanted to re-do all of my pathology reports. For about the past month, I have had really bad headaches. I have chronic sinusitis and usually suffer from sinus headaches.

Long battle with RA
They are also looking at
Rituxan
but side effects can be severe and scary. Xeljanz is a once daily pill w/ no injection. Hoping this one hits nail on the head! Pain as you all know is brutal, exhausting, frustrating . I'm still working FT and a mom to 3 boys. Any responses would be great!

Importance of Clinical Trials & knowledge
When I failed two of the most widely used standard TX drugs for CLL (Fludarabine &
Rituxan
) because of life threatening reactions I decided I needed a re-evaluation of my Clinical Trial Phase 1 fears.

My success with Imbruvica (ibrutinib
So, he switched to weekly infusions of
Rituxan
. The same week that Imbruvica was approved for treatment of CLL, he put me on it. I've been on it since early March. At that time my platelet count was 35. With being on the Imbruvica only, my count has steadily gone up to 109 yesterday.

recently diagnosed with CLL
The new doc started me on
Rituxan
, continued the weekly Nplate, and scheduled a bone marrow biopsy after 4 weeks of platelet counts of 10-25,000. He told me on Christmas Eve I have CLL. I started FCR last week and will have 3 days of that every 28 days.

Ibrutinib/Gazyva
I had the same reaction to
Rituxan
and wonder if this is the problem. I also used to have a condition called gastroparesis, but that is long gone. I'm wondering if possibly that is coming back. I don't know where to turn. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Starting Rituxan..
I start Rituxamab January 7th. We couldn't get me off of the steroids before my count would drop again. How did it affect you? I'm scared to death!! Any advice on how to handle it well? How did it affect your counts?

Rituximab/Rituxan

Weight loss post steroids
I had a 6 heavy, short pulses of Dexamethazone (decadron) steroids in combo with 4 weeks of
Rituxan
. My steroids were 4 days of 40mg each, then off. This is not possible with Prednisone, but is with Decadron.

Relapsed CLL
I am scheduled to have 6-8 doses of
Rituxan
again. My questions to all of you who may have undertaken this 'relapsed CLL' journey... Will the
Rituxan
be more toxic (cause more serious side effects than my previous rounds back in 2006?

Another new one
I had bendamustine,
Rituxan
, and Idelalisib as part of a clinical trial but failed the Idelalisib part. Remission should last a few years and then I'll be back at it again. I'm especially interested in the research for obvious reasons. Looking forward to learning all I can!
