Guest guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Hi Bonnie The only other problem I have apart from Ra is a thing called mediated hypotension.Its an autonomic problem Its were my blood pressure drops to low and my heart rate goes slow. Can I ask what the reaction was like when you had your last infusion so I will know if it happens to me .. Its good to know that you have started to feel a lot better since starting the riruxan Love Joyce Joyce, I just got done my 6mth infusion...? Unfortunately I had a bad reaction this past time that was horrible...? However, my infusion nurse assured me that this is unusual.?? My very first infusion went really well, the only reaction I had was that the next day I was so tired I could barely function.? So far, my infusions only last about 4months and my doc will only let me have them every 6 months...?? But during those 4 months, I actually start to feel 85% better then I have been with any of the other drugs...?? I have heard of great results with Rituxin and feel even the bad reaction I just had, is worth it to feel good for four months...? I'm told the more infusions I get, that they may begin to last longer then the four months...? I hope thats right!?? Please let me know how it goes...?? If you don't mind me asking, what is your actual diagnosis?? Do you have strait RA or a combination of things? Gentle hugs and well wishes!
