Re: QUESTION About Rituxan()

[Guest guest]

Hi , The Lab called me today to get muy permision to contact the

insurance to see if they'll pay.

Can I ask how expensive is It & did you have too much trouble to get it

aproved?.

Also, what's the diference betwen the injectables & the Infusion?. Do you

remember how long after you had it did you get to feel the efects?

I wonder why she's taking me off the other meds. ( I also was taking MTX &

Sulfa... & Pred. ) I'm scared to get off all of them. so I reduced this week.

( Hopefully I'll hear from them by next) but the Rd. wanted to wait to Jan

to see me.

Thanks a lot.

Vivien,

Hi! I am new to the Still's family, my name is and I was diagnosed

officially in March of this year. I have not been tried on Rituxan, I would be

interested if after you take it if it helps.

I don't have any answers about the cost, but one of the ladies at my Rheumys

office said that our doc wrote a letter to the insurance and stated that all

other treatments had failed and the insurance covered the Rituxan, she swears by

it, she says this is the first time in a year that she was not taking pain meds

everyday. Hope that helps. It is scary being off all our meds, I have been taken

off of everything except for the steroids, waiting on approval to try Cytoxan. I

had a bad experience with Enbrel, and ended up having surgery to remove lymph

nodes in my neck and the biopsies having components of B-cell lymphoma. So the

Cytoxan is one of the drugs to treat B-cell lymphoma and it is also being used

in Still's so maybe we can kill 2 birds with one stone. Good Luck, lots of hugs,

and well wishes. Maybe this will be your answer.
