Just now reading this thread. I hope your infusion was trouble free and you are feeling good.
My daughter had the 3 pulse and then Rituximab. It was a do or die situation. She was very, very sick. Unfortunately she did have a bad reaction. Her blood pressure shot up and she ended up seizing and landed in PICU in an induced coma. Scary times. I was home with a newborn and my husband was at hospital with her. She's much better now though still has a long road ahead of her. They said she developed PRES (Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome). Honestly can't say if it was the Rituximab that did it or the Cytoxan. She had both and right now I can't remember which one she had the night of seizures.
