Haptoglobin Levels

A myAIHAteam Member asked a question 💭
Zürich

I had 4 doses of Rituximab 6 months ago. Now my blood work still shows decreased haptoglobin levels. Was/is anyone experiencing something similar? How long did it take for your haptoglobin to reach normal levels? Just so worried that this is a sign of ongoing hemolysis…

I had Rituximab infusions back in 2021. I will not take Pred. My hemoglobin is ok still but Haptoglobin in the red still. My hematologist left the practice and no one there can/will tell me where he is now. My "new" hematologist doesn't seem to know or care to know why my Haptoglobin is low. Unfortunately our doctors here in LV NV are marginal, at best. I'm terrified all the time.
