B-cells

[BevAnn]

Ocrevus has lowered my b-cells to the point where I haven't had an infusion in over a year. Anyone else had this reaction? I'm worried about the repercussions of having no b-cells.

I'm on rituximab and get infusions every 15 months. It'd not uncommon for rituximab patients to be on an extended dosing.

I am personally not concerned because I have been on rituximab for 7 years now.

I hope others will respond and I wish you well.

Hopefully we will be ok without B cells.
They must serve some purpose.
I wish that I understood it all better.
I only do bloodwork once every three months and never hear anything
Sometimes I just feel like someone’s cash cow.
They do me every six months exactly.
