I had my first infusion of rituxan on may 29th of this year with the second half done on June 13th... I am now approx. 2 weeks out from the infusion. I am starting to feel much better as I can work again now and I can play with my grandkids. I am still fatigued somewhat and the joints in my hips and shoulders feel like jello... that being said they feel like that when I have a weak spell... that is the only thing that is going on with me right now. When I start to feel the jello or weakness in those joints that is when the fatigue sets in. Is this a normal thing? I have had the worst flare in my life this time as I was on orencia and it quit working. Had to wait about 3 weeks until I could get the rituxan infusion due to scheduling etc... However I had been "down" for about 1 1/2 months prior to getting the infusion. I thought I was just having a flare and it would go away boy was I wrong. Has anyone else had these symptoms after the rituxan infusion?
Thanks
Peggy
