Ocrevus bloods

I have my regular ocrevus appointment tomorrow. It seems the hospital messed up timings and I had my bloods taken 6.5 weeks ago rather than the required 2-4 weeks required. Does anyone know if I could still get the infusion? It's been a bit touch and go already as I've picked up a cough from my da...

Infusion today

Had my infusion this morning. Apparently Kaiser pharmacy changed how they mix the medicine up. In the past it was mixed with a full 1000ml of saline. Today it was with half that much. No problems, and I was done in about 2 hours. This was for the Rituximab bio-similar call Riabni.

Retuximab

To my friends on Retuximab—did you have a reaction during your first infusion/loading dose? I had my loading dose in June, and I had my throat close up, I was super itchy, and I was also very flushed. Am I alone in this?
