Hi all,

Well Aidan is joining the bandwagon of Rituxan patients.  His counts have been unsteady for a few weeks and unresponsive to the usual dose of Cyclosporine.  We are currently in hospital because of a hemaglobin dip.  I know Rituxan has been successful for many of you.  I was wondering if levels of your loved ones are still maintained with other drugs during and after the treatments?  Aidan will continue to stay on cyclosporine and will be weaned from steroids after the treatments.  He will receive four doses over four weeks.  Is this a similiar pattern and how long were counts sustained before treatment had to be repeated?  Thanks again for all your knowledge and info.
