    Even with the neupogen shots that we had to inject into her three times per week, her numbers never came up. I am convinced that with the proper Neutropenia treatment, her eczema allergies and asthma will be healed by the blood of JESUS! The Method If we look at the chain of events, we see that none of the other health problems occurred before she entered the swimming pool. One theory is that the pool was not cleaned properly, therefor infecting future swimmers. The doctors kept asking the same questions but it didn 't dawn on me to until a few months later.…

    Rituximab

    • 604 Words

    For the purpose of this discussion topic paper, I reviewed the article Rituximab as a treatment for severe atopic eczema: failure to improve in three consecutive patients. The article discussed the study of three consecutive patients with severe atopic eczema (red, itchy skin) that they treated with rituximab infusions, but the infusions failed to improve the condition. The article also mentions three other case studies that varied in results. Considering the small sample used in the main study of this article and the contradicting findings of other sited studies, I do not find that the main study, alone, is an adequate one to draw any type of final conclusion about whether or not rituximab is a successful method of treatment for severe atopic eczema.…
