Rituxan third time

Rituxan third time was created by debbied
Well the platelets are continuing their descent downward so my hemo says time to infuse again. It's been 25 months since the last Rituxan so it has lasted quite a while. I remember because my grandson was born the same week as my last infusion. Yesterday's platelets were 25,000 down from 35,000 the week before. Wish me luck and maybe another 25 months. I'm choosing Rituxan again since it worked before and I'm kind of afraid of other treatments. I know how I react to Rituxan.

Good luck Debbie. Some of us have had longer remissions after subsequent rounds.
