I've read of so many types of neuropathies that I don't know where to start. All I know is that my PM is supposedly caused by WM (waldenstroms), a very rare type of cancer of the blood that has to do with too many IgM's in my blood. Hopefully, with successful treatment of the cancer, the PM is supposed to subside as well.

I do know this, when I take my vitamins like I'm supposed to, the "bad" days aren't nearly as bad as they had been. Specifically a B complex, plus B12 extra, among others.

Right now, as I type this, there are more mistakes than there are correct words. The PN has settled in my right hand more than the left, and I spend more time making corrections than I do anything else. Sheesh ! ! ! This is so frustrating. And, me with such limited patience to boot.

The first series of Rituxan treatments for the WM did hardly nothing. From 7,900 down to 7,100. The doctor put me on a regimen of steroids once a week for 4 weeks before again starting another regimen of Rituxan. Hopefully, this will help the Rituxan do its job.

Just venting~~~~~
