(I experienced improvement last year when I was given plasma pherisis treatments.) At the very least, the Rituxan has halted further nerve injury in many cases. So I am waiting to see and hoping for the best.

Try contacting the Rituxan manufacturer - they have a program to provide the drug if you qualify.

Hope you will post further news of your husband's situation.

Dear Nancy,
How are you doing?
I was just dx with anti mag neuropathy and the doctors all want to start me on Rituxan. They did not even discuss plasma phersis. Have you seen any improvement?
