    Rituxan it is! I start with two infusions and the first on 3/19 and the second on 4/02. My doc is head of the infusion center and picked tehse days so he could be there while I'm getting infused. It doesn't sound so bad, and I'll just hope for a quick and easy fix.

    My birthday is April 2nd, so that kind of stinks but I'll look at it as a gift to myself!

    Take care!

    Good news! Anything that we do for ourselves that bring us to remission is the best present. The second infusion should not be as long as the first. Perhaps you could plan a celebration for the evening. So much to celebrate! I hope the RTX brings you relief quickly.

    Great news, Katrina! I hope the RTX works better for you than anything so far, and puts you into a lasting remission.

    My first infusion was 3/19 and it went smoothly. I have another on 4/02. I was worn out that evening but my legs wouldn't stop jumping long enough to get any sleep. Other than that, I felt tired and beat. I was able to work thru the infusion and worked every day since.

    I have noticed the pain in my lung (inflamation and fluid) is starting to slowly hurt more with every day and not sure what that's about but I want it to stop.

    Thansk for all the love and concern! Happy Spring!

    I'm glad the first infusion went well Katrina.

    I don't really like the sound of your lung pain. I have no idea way it is happening so you probably should get it checked out.
    Hopefully it's because the infusion is starting to do something good and reducing any mass inside the lungs.

    Take care and I hope no.2 goes just as smoothly next week.
    Keep Smiling
