My insurance is going to cover it because my lymph node biopsies showed that I

had abnormal B-cells that indicate B-cell lymphoma, so I have to take it IV

twice a week for that, and it has been used in some Still's cases, so we hope to

kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Not to scare anyone because we are all different, but

my abnormal biopsies were from taking Enbrel. That is why the only thing I have

been on since the surgery in October is steroids. As soon as my fever clears I

get to start the Cytoxan.

I'll give you a quick background on me, I was officially dx in March of this

year for insurance purposes, for the last 2 years I have battled this ugly

monster, I have major organ invovlement, lost all of my stomach and part of my

colon about 16 months ago, stopped working due to the Still's, we really didnt

know that at the time, but after a review of my case and biopsies that's how

they figured it out. I also lost my gallbladder, spleen, appendix and some more

of my colon during the next surgery. And recently in October I had about 6 lymph

nodes removed from my neck and 2 places in my mouth, didn't know they could sew

up your tongue, don't recommend that one if you don't have toLOL.

Probably more than you want to know, but everyone is different, I just didn't

get help soon enough, mainly because I thought it would eventually go away.

But, my moto is never give up, there is always someone worse off than you are,

and my Oncologist calls me the energizer bunny, he said you just keep on going.

I guess you have to find the humor in everything.

Lots of Hugs,

Hope you find your magical treatment soon!!!
