Default Rituxan® (rituximab)

Has anyone heard of or know anyone that has taken this drug for Peripheral Neuropathy? My dad has had pain in his legs for the past 7 years with no relief of any medicine. It is now starting in his hands. We were told about this drug and I was wondering if anyone had any information about it. Thanks in advance.

I have no experience with it,, but am scheduled to get it next month,, I am scared to do it for fear of it wiping out my immune system,, I alreaady have a immune deficiency which I receive IVIG for,,, hopefully this will keep my immune sysatem up and running while I get the Rituxin
