IVIG isn't an immunosuppressant, and Rituximab is used as a treatment for Lymphoma.
Sorry you have had Lymphoma to cope with stillHoping. I would really like to be allowed to try IViG - but it isn't looking very likely just now so Rituximab may be more possible. However I suppose it should maybe be saved as an option in the event of getting Lymphoma. I have read of immunosuppressants being linked to increased risk of lymphoma too but I suspect the neuro isn't coming from this perspective. Thanks for confirming.
