Pre Ritiximab my phosphate was 1.59 & my blood pressure was 85/51, 81/63 & 90/54 too low 2 start iv) then 123/64 (ok 2 start iv). My BP went up & down during Ritiximab discharged 116/62. Then post Ritiximab call from hospital my phosphate level were low 0.46, need 2 have bloods done again. 5 days post Ritiximab my phosphate levels still low 0.55, they will contact my consultant. I still have had no contact from the hospital, keep having dizzy spells, pins & needles & very tired. I have emailed my consultants pa directly & left messages with day unit & pa. Has any1 else also had low phosphate levels? What action was taken? Thanks 4 your help & keep well. xx
