My husband was diagnosed with fibrillary glomerulonephritis 2 yrs ago. His kidney function has declined to 16 and we are going to peritoneal dialysis classes soon. As a "hail mary" we have request rituximab treatment, which the nephrologist said won't work:(
How have others been treated and was treatment successful?
Thank you

@marknkary77, sorry I can't be of more help in your situation. My experience with the disease was more than 65 years ago, and medical science has long ago left me and my classmate behind with scientific advances that only the best nephrologists can help you with. I hope you can get an appointment with a Mayo Clinic center in Rochester MN, Jacksonville FL, or Phoenix AZ. I can give you no better advice than that. Martin
