Any Rituximab Users Try Truxima?

My insurance has denied me rituximab, which I have been using with great success since 2017. They insist I use Truxima, one of the biosimilars.

About 3 years ago, they gave me Ruxience, another biosimilar. While it worked for the MG, I had six weeks of skin and lymph node reactions which necessitated the use of steroids, which I had been off of for 6 years. Sigh.

At that time, it was put in my chart that I was to have Rituximab only….until now. And to top it off, I can only do it at home, which would be great, if I was getting Rituximab. I have been assured that the nurse will have a “crash kit” with her should I react and hey, I am only 8 minutes away from a hospital. How comforting…

Anyone use Truxima? How’d it go?

Garage Sale of College Move Out Finds

As requested, I am showing photos of the sale items I collected last week during college move out. My sale began at 7 am today and I was almost totally sold out by 11, and closed. I left a pile of leftovers by the curb (which completely disappeared in less than an hour)and boxed up some small boxes to take to the free pantry and humane society. I also have a handful of items to take to resale.

I made $420 (heheh) today. I had sold the best stuff on FB prior to this and made around $300. A mere fraction of the items’ original worth, but I saved a lot, sold a lot, and had a lot of fun.

Thanks for looking!
