Thanks for asking. What a day. Probably 5 hours in the ER. Not what I expected from the first infusion. Ready to do battle again; hopefully I won’t react. How are things for you?

I had a reaction to Rituximab (10 minutes into my first treatment) and went into anaphylactic shock. Ended up in the ER.
