Knees feel numb but I can feel them ? Also approved for rituxan!
Just got word that insurance has approved
Rituxan
after a 6 month denial and appeal. Good thing since I've had the oddest sensation that my knees are numb, but I can feel when I touch them. Have any of you experienced this? Maybe a new exacerbation? Appt with Neurologist tomorrow.

Results of the phase III ECOG trial found that the combination of ibrutinib (Imbruvica) plus rituximab (
Rituxan
) came out superior to the chemotherapy and immunotherapy (chemoimmunotherapy) grouping of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab, known as FCR.

Neuro appt and answer to some of my ?s
“We used to do this for
Rituxan
but because we are worried about loss of insurance coverage if we tried to change infusion schedule, we don’t do this.” 2. “Get most vaccines 1 mos. before next infusion. Because my next O infusion is in March, Flu vaccine 2 mos after last infusion.” 3.

Skin Reactions to Rituximab/Rituxan?
I finished 4 rounds of
Rituxan
for B-cell NHL about 45 days ago. Overall I feel amazing! Thanks for asking. What's weird is what's happening on my skin. I have blisters popping up on my right arm, chest, and now one on my scalp.

Rituximab/Rituxan Side Effects
A month and a half to 2 months after I finished my last infusion I started having side effects. I went on-line because I wasn't getting answers from my docs. I thought there just couldn't be any other explanation for what was happening. As best as I can understand once the body is ready for the anti-bodies

Horrible Leg pain following Rituxan
Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with increased pain following their
Rituxan
infusions? I am in excruciating pain from my groin to my toes on the right side and my muscles are stiff. I don’t know what it is.

Recent SLL/CLL Patient Question
I had
Rituxan
treatment shortly after since I have neutropenia I can't seem to shake. I will save this for another post. My lymph nodes are visible but not huge yet. Since I have 11q I have read it can become a bulky disease. Not sure if they mean months/years/decades...

Just smile and wave
My med cocktail now is
rituxan
, plaquenil and MTX. I’ve just had one of the worst flares I’ve ever had. Still tapering off a small steroid pack. I’ve had worsening pain and swelling in my pointer finger very bottom joint.

Methotrexate woes
Also am on plaquenil 200mg twice daily and
Rituxan
infusion. Last infusion was in May. I don’t think my MTX is s high enough dose as by day 5 I’m in awful pain again. Anyone else have this happen? Left rheumy a message yesterday about increasing the dose.

Coping with a vasculitis relapse
They can include repeating Cyclophsphamide (Cytoxan in US) chemotherapy, or Ritxumab (
Rituxan
in US). Or using other immunosuppressive agents at increased doses, like steroids, Methotrexate, Mycophenolate Mofetil (=Cellcept) and Azathioprine. Basically yes, there are lots the medics can do.
