In case (1), rituximab would work by clearing the autoimmunity that had been triggered as a one-off event by the acute infection. In case (2), perhaps rituximab will clear the autoimmunity for a while, but possibly the autoimmunity might later reappear because of the ongoing infection
But I am just guessing here. I know very little about autoimmunity, so take the above with a pinch of salt.
@Gingergrrl Thanks for your knowledge! I am waiting on cell trend results, if those are high which other autoantibody tests do you recommend?
What's FXR?
