suetex,, THANK YOU!!!, MY Rheumatologist did not want me to have the IVIG and the Retuximab, she concerned because my Sjogren's is worse. I'm going to speak with her again about it. Did you ever look into family background with Autoimmune issues? I would love to find out. As of now no one family had it going back to 3 generation. What makes it worse, failed back surgery so pain all the time. I have a pain pump implanted by my Pain Management DR. Helps Cervical Spine.
Your very informative, THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!

To answer the family question, I also had no family history in any way. Don't know what it means, if anything. I can see a doctor having negative feelings about the Retuximab but less about the IvIg. Let us hope the reasons can be explianed to you. You deserve to know. So far the Retuximab hasn't caused real problems and 3 of docs my were all for it.
