Hi Grace,
Yes I gave myself methotrexate injections for 2 years, then doc changed to Imuran. At the beginning of this last attack he did mention CellCept, and yes I am on a full gram of Rituxam per infusion. Have been on 150 mg Imuran for 6 yrs, and with all these "crappy" meds I am still relapsing. Gotta do something. The thought of losing more is not much of a comfort..... hugs, Linda Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2010 15:38:28 -0500 Subject: Re: [TMIC] Linda's "recurrent TM" From: [email protected] To: [email protected] CC: [email protected]; [email protected] Hi Irish, You've already done methotrexate both oral and injections, haven't you? Has your doctor conisdered CellCept? (Mycophenolate Mofetil) We do have some members at Devic's Support that have used it while also using Rituxan. Are you on a full gram of Rituxan per infusion? How much Imuran are you currently using---I'm thinking 150-200 mgs? My neuro had me totally phase out the Imuran after Rituxan kicked in. Like you, on one occasion I experienced a really low white count, and on another, elevated liver enzymes. Both times I had to stop using it until everything was back in order. XOXO Gracie
