    Hi Dutch.

    How did the CRP and ESR results come back? Are they trending down?

    No his numbers have not come down yet. For example, his CRP is 72. He was given a 3rd dose of RTX with a fourth planned for next week. I am worried about the damage of walking around w such high numbers might be doing. Come on RTX work!

    Talking

    Finally, after 9 weeks from the first dose of RTX , my son's numbers are going down!! (After 4, it was determined he might be under dosed, so 2 more rounds were done) We are all so encouraged. Now, to lower pred and get to remission.

    Wishing you all good or greater health in the new year.
