Mynumbness is still unchanged but my motor skills and reflexes are much better.
Hope this helps!

Hi LisaMac
i was led to believe Rituximab was not available in Canada.. where (if you don't mind my asking ) in Canada are you...i am in Southern Ontario and see a neurologist at MacMaster University Hospital..i would definitely like to keep in touch with you to follow your treatments.
