I see a specialist at the UW hospital. I am under ongoing treatment with Rituxin IV's every 10 weeks. This has halted and also improved my condition.
My DR. is Micheal Weiss.
Hi Marilyn,

I have seen a neurologist at Virginia Mason Hosp. and I'm trying to decide which way to go with treatments. I was diagnosed about 8 years ago at the U. of Iowa Hosp. in Iowa City. I received IVIg for several years with some success, but it seemed to become less helpful over time. I would like to start Rituxan but will need to convince my insurance co. that I need it. Dr. John Ravits is the neurologist I am seeing.

Hope to hear from you.
