Rheumatoid Arthritis
"My rheumatoid arthritis was so severe that I have had four joint replacements (both hips and both knees) within 4 years.  I have tried Enbrel, Humira, and Remicade and none of them were effective. My joints were stiff and my flares were frequent, I was in so much pain and was very depressed because of my limitations.  My Rhuematologist, who I feel is totally the best,  told me about Rituxan (rituximab) and I agreed to try it in 2010.  After my first infusion, I felt this was miracle pill because I had immediate positive results.  I did not have ANY of the side effects that others have spoken about. I know that Rituxan gave me back my quality of life and my infusions can last up to a year.  I&#039;m still on it."
