Guest guest Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hey Vivien, I will keep rooting for you, hang in there, if you need to talk I am here. I was on MTX before my last surgery, my hair didn't come out to bad, but it got really hard to manage it didn't do anything I wanted it to do. Actually when Plaquenil was added to the mix, my hair started coming out more, I don't know maybe it was the combo of the 2. If I start Cytoxan next week they already told me I would lose my hair, my youngest son has already shaved all of his off in support. I am a baseball hat person, cause I cannot stand a wig, its hot and itches. Thanks for the info on Nissa too, I posted to the group. Take care, Keep me posted, ________________________________ To: Stillsdisease Sent: Sunday, December 7, 2008 7:07:44 PM Subject: Re: [stillsd About Rituxan () Hey , Thanks for rooting for me & specially the prayers...I 'm doing the double - " Special " untill & hear from the insurance & then re- start to asked it works for me!! . I had to decide today if I'd skip the MTX or take another dose. I simply couldn't . I would've if it's been after the montly flare, but I It's about readdy to start again, so I coun't take the chance to make it a untolerable one. The insurance called to get the insurance aproval started & said I should have the asweer next week. I hope the RD> is readdy to get going by then. It hit me that the reazon that they must get you off IS so that IT'LL be in your records that nothing else worked so you had to get off THEN they request permission to start you on the NEXT & say that you need it cause you tried all the other stuff & didn't work. ( that way is in record, in writting for when they request the copies.) Any way I believe that It was Ellen that was on MTX & said she lost a lot of hair but it came back " curly " (she used to be straght).I've done the oposite I used to be straight, lost ( still losing it) & now is mostly straight. Hope I get it back once I'm off the MTX. Hope your not to far from getting on something that helps. So far I herd good stuff about RTX.
