FCR Domperidone
Hi everyone. I am having my first lot of FCR and this is the first day at home with all my tablets! So many! Can I ask those of you that were given domperidone for sickness if you took them when you didn’t feel sick or just when you did? It says I can have 3 per day. I don’t feel sick yet. Thank you.

How Can I Help My Partner With Lupus? + Rituximab
Week ago, we were told that pills are not heplful for him and that it is necessary to try
Rituximab
. So another roller coaster. I found so many helpful information here, but I still have two questions: 1. What side effects can we expect, especially right after infusion?

Nearing treatment?
Hello! I just had my 3 monthly visit with my haemotologist. My lymphocytes have jumped from 10 to 27. My glands are feeling bigger ...especially under my armpits. Hemoglobin and platelets all still in normal range and I actually feel good. My haemotologist says he will confer with his colleagues and

rituximab

Rituximab and steroid injection 🤔
She has referred me for a spinal steroid injection for the pain but i was wondering how quickly can you have this after the
rituximab
, do you you have to wait weeks or months or does it matter ?

How many Lupus patients here have been offered biologics?
I contacted the hospital today and am asking for statistical info under the Freedom of Information Act of how many patients in my PCT have been offered
rituximab
or benlysta (my PCT does not allow Benlysta use!) since biologics have been licensed.

Hi everyone,
My name is Sarah my lovely 61 year old dad is going for his first FCR treatment for CLL on Monday am. I thought I'd write to see if any one had any recommendations on someone receiving their first FCR treatment - and although it's highly individual anything we should expect. I have prepared a chemo

Questions about stopping Imbruvica due to infection

Rituximab ....
Hi all, I've been having a
Rituximab
infusion every three months (used to be two every six months) and went today for the latest one. Am feeling really disheartened as my blood pressure went so high they had to stop the infusion.

Looking for info from the brainy folks on here!
I usually just lurk but my doctor really wants me to consider going on
Rituximab
for my MS. Is anyone on here on it or have been on it? What were your experiences, good, bad and indifferent? I can not do Ocrevous because of the increased breast cancer risk.

Reaction to FCR or Medicine.
I had my first cycle of FCR in August. I had an allergy to something. Most likely the bactrim (sulfur) and was hospitalized twice. I also had a severe rash that covered my entire body except for my face (thank god!). My Oncologist has decided to put off any further treatments at this time. My WBC

Rituximab versus Etanercept
Regular dmards have not worked for me and my Rheumatologist has asked that I decide between Rutuximab and Etanercept. Both seem quite frightening. Would like to know your experiences of these medications as it is a difficult decision to make. Look forward to your responses.
