I have been under treatment at the University of Washington Hospital for aproximately seven years now with success. I became afflicked with tingeling, pain and numbness in the heals of my feet, weekness in my legs, and extreme tiredness. I spent many a nights with out sleep in the beginning.
I see a specialist at the UW hospital. I am under ongoing treatment with Rituxin IV's every 10 weeks. This has halted and also improved my condition.
My DR. is Micheal Weiss.

Hi Marilyn,
I have seen a neurologist at Virginia Mason Hosp. and I'm trying to decide which way to go with treatments. I was diagnosed about 8 years ago at the U. of Iowa Hosp. in Iowa City. I received IVIg for several years with some success, but it seemed to become less helpful over time. I would like to start Rituxan but will need to convince my insurance co. that I need it. Dr. John Ravits is the neurologist I am seeing.
Hope to hear from you.
