Guest guest Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Sorry to have posted the previous " almost message " . What I wanted to say was that I know I have been using more of my pain meds than I am supposed to, but when I went back to my normal doseage, I have the sore throat and a fever. It isn't as high as it could be, but I think the extra pain meds have been masking both the pain and the fever. It seems all I can do is sleep and toss and turn. I increased my own steroids to 10mg, but that isn't going to fix things. I'm just hanging on until Rituxan infusion on 10/1. Just thout I would let you know, Larry, that I totally understand what you have been going thru and I applaud you for speaking out. Not sure what I will do about these increase symptoms, but I'm hanging on. Stay Healthy Shellly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hi , I'm sorry you're feeling so bad. I can truly sympathize. I did want you to know, though, that the Rituxen won't take affect immediately. I was told it could take up to 4 months from the 2nd infusion. I'm almost at 2 months and I have noticed the pain has decreased somewhat, but the disease is progressing. It's harder to walk, things like that. I'm still very hopeful...but thought you should know so that your hopes aren't completely deflated when it doesn't work immediately. Good luck kiddo! in tx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
