Rituxan update

Rituxan update was created by eklein
In April 2008 I had my second Rituxan treatment, two infusions. My count today was 186 - so I'm about to hit two years remission! I caught a dip back in November to around 100, but otherwise I've been in the normal range, usually around 200. I hope my spleen learned a lesson and will continue to behave and only eat what spleens are supposed to eat.

I've got some other updates but I'll post them in the appropriate folders.
