Tocilizumab or Baricitinib?
Came off Enbrel as conditioned worsened, so started a new Biologic,
Rituximab
- two 6 hourly infusions, 2 weeks apart. This was supposed to last for 6 months. However, I have had no improvement whatsoever.

So the final moment came...we need treatment
The doctor said its our choice whether
Rituximab
+ some additions, or Ibrutinib. I was thinking Ibrutinib is safe until the latest trial in BG, where 8 out of 10 people dies mainly from cardiovascular issues and the doctor observed himself.

Is low IgM a side-effect of CLL drug treatment?
Does IgM tend to be remain low as a result of taking
Rituximab
[Rituxan] or other CLL drugs? Are there any known drug or nutraceutical [nutritional supplements] remedies for elevating IgM back to normal levels? Higsby

Frustrated
painful and very swollen they decided to draw fluid from it and inject steroid to relieve the swelling but were unable to get any fluid out as they said my muscles had tightened around the joint too much, so was sent home with 3 leaflets to decide what I would like to try next, Adalimumab, Abatacept or

Adult with ITP and Antiphospholipid Antibodies
I’ve taken my first injection of
Rituximab
(Zytux) two days and doctors hoped it can boost my platelet count, but it couldn’t. My Platelet count today was 3000 that is to low. I was wondering if someone here is familiar with condition like me?

Starting Treatment
My Onc/Hem wants to pt me on Ambruvica plus 6 month of
rituximab
infusions. Imbruvica will cost me $10K a year out of pocket, which is doable but will really stretch my budget.

Retuximab protocol
Hello everyone
Rituximab
is considered 1st line treatment for membranous nephropathy. It would be the ideal drug , if you still have active disease. It works to decrease the antibody that we think causes membranous nephropathy. 9 years ago it was a very expensive treatment ( drug).

Running out of treatments
I failed on
Rituximab
this year after 11 years ( 16 cycles). The team decided to try me on Tocilizumab (TCZ) seeing as its also a b cell depleter. It took them 14 weeks to get organised by then I was in a state so had a depo the day I started the TCZ.
