  1. @sigh_d There is no cure for MS, so I will likely be on some form or other of treatment for the rest of my life. If this one keeps me from relapsing then maybe this one. Since #rituximab is killing off part of my immune system, if it works I’ll probably be able to drop it to once a year or so, though.

  2. Infusion for #MultipleSclerosis is officially done! And this time I got smart and took a couple days off so I don’t wind up in urgent care again. Woohoo!!! No more treatments for six months. Just an MRI and neuro appointment between treatments. #rituximab #FuckMS #rituxan

  3. CW: #MultipleSclerosis Infusion

    I have my twice yearly #rituximab infusion for MS tomorrow. I’ve loaded up on snacks and I’m gonna charge my Switch, grab a book and download some tv. I’m lowkey stressed about it. Writing codes at the Co-Op backwards and shit.
    Last 2x I ended up in urgent care because the directions about getting checked out for issues after infusion are pretty scary. Here’s to me knowing what to expect and not having issues this time! #rituxan #pwms #fuckMS

  4. I think a lot of this stress is coming from the fact that I have so much going on later this month, too. It’s my #rituximab infusion month so everything has this surreal and moderately terrifying sheen to it. Last time I had my infusion I ended up in urgent care within a few days.

  5. CW: #MultipleSclerosis Stuff

    Before my diagnosed medical treatment for #MS I have to get my bloodwork done. And even though I intellectually understand that #rituxan kills off part of my immune system, it’s still alarming to see it in my lab results. #PwMS #MultipleSclerosis #chronicillness #rituximab

  6. Feeling pretty solid and human about 48 hours after my #rituxan infusion for #MultipleSclerosis. Here’s to hoping I stay relapse free for another six months! #ChronicIllness #MS #PwMS #rituximab #MSSucks

  7. It is almost funny how I thought I was not going to be anxious about my #rituxan infusion today. I almost made it to go time without an #anxiety spike, but the IV steroids put an end to that dream. #MultipleSclerosis #MSSucks #pwms #rrms #ChronicIllness #AnxietyDisorder #infusion #rituximab

  8. I’m so happy I was wise enough to take today off in advance. Physically I’m doing surprisingly well post infusion, but emotionally and intellectually I am all over the place. And I’m exhausted as all hell. #multiplesclerosis #rituximab #rituxan

  9. I survived my first infusion! Woohoo!!! Was gone 7 hours total. I’m home now and I’m going to nap and hydrate and keep my fingers crossed for no side effects. #multiplesclerosis #pwms #rituximab #rituxan #fums

  10. CW: Infusion Multiple Sclerosis

    Waiting for the pre medications to kick in. I already detest the steroids.#rituximab #multiplesclerosis #rituxan

  11. Fuuuuuccckkk. First #rituximab infusion ever is today. In an hour. I’m so nervous and all my psychosomatic bs is in full effect. #rituxan #multiplesclerosis #pwms #ms

  12. CW: MS & Infusions

    I’m scheduled for my first #rituximab infusion on June 13. It’s gonna take 4-6 hours. Any fun tips on how to pass the time enjoyably? #infusion #multiplesclerosis #pwms #ms #rituxan

  13. CW: MS Stuff

    I just scheduled three vaccines for tomorrow so I can start infusions soon and I am preemptively exhausted. #multiplesclerosis #rituximab

    Ich habe mal eine Frage an die neurologischen Kollegen hier in der Runde:

    Problem bei Einsatz von Ocrelizumab im Rahmen einer sekundär progredienten MS (SPMS) ist, dass eine klinisch und radiologisch nicht-aktive SPMS eine „off label“-Indikation wäre, in den Leitlinie der Einsatz aber in Analogie zur primär progredienten MS (PPMS) im Einzelfall in Betracht gezogen werden kann, jeden ausdrücklich ohne jede Evidenz.
