Well my doctor still wants me to take that insane drug that can cause death. Rituximab is what it is called. But I'm standing my ground. I almost got him talked into radiation for a second time. To make a long story short, I have an autoimmune disease that causes tumors. So I've been in chemotherapy for 3 years now. This chemo I've been on for the past year, has not been responding. I talked to the family and they are telling me to do the rituximab. I've so far tried to seek a second medical opinion with 2 other doctors, however, both of them were not familar with the medication as listed. There of, I am still saying no to it. It seems my family is not being supportive, and I want to thank you. Everyone here has been supportive, helping, positive. Thank you for doing something my family can't even do.
