Hi Julie.
I just wanted to wish you good luck with the Rituximab! I had a four week dose of it back in September to treat an EBV reactivation after my transplant. They'll give the first dose to you reeeeeeally slowly, like over 6 hours to make sure you don't react badly, but fingers crossed you'll be like me and have no problems with the little bioengineered hybrid wonders!
