Can RA Vasculitis Go Into Remission If Interstitial Lung Disease Develops?
I have long term RA - over 20 years - and have recently developed ILD. was using Rituxan for vasculitis and now have lung disease but RA symptoms seem
to not be troubling. any connections. thx
Can ILD cause some remission of RA?
Hi Joan,
I don't think the Rituxan should be causing issues with your lungs.
I've had RA and pSA for over 30 years. I've had ILD for about 10 years and have been on Rituxan for about 5 years. I was put on it because my cornea melted and Rituxan works well for ocular issues, RA, pSA and doesn't damage the lungs.
Hope it is temporary! .glad you recovered from pneumonia.
Iām on Remicade and recently had pneumonia, since I recovered my right lung has been painful when I sneeze or breathe in deeply. Have anyone had these symptoms?
