Katrina, Welcome to the best MG place on the net, we all vent and express joy here and we all understand! You are right in the fact that they have come a long way since we have been DXed. {18 yrs for me} I had been in med free remission for 17 years so it is an adjustment to be "out" again. I don't take any meds due to reactions and have never heard of "Rituxan" what is it? Is it like IVIG? Well, once again welcome to our "family"
