My neuro proposed me to try Rituximab as I'm refractive to IVIGs and Cellcept, sustained large doses of Pred are not very effective and I have PLEX each 10 or 15 days in the meantime…
One presentation in a Paris meeting in late December gave about the same conclusions (maybe the same study?), but it indicated also that the initial improvement did not last after the first 6 months or so, which was the period of time for the Rituximab injections…
I haven't made up my mind yet!
Maurice.
