januarybabe,

When I go each month for IVIg infusions, I am given Lorazepam for nausea etc.
I have noticed that I do not have any real pain to speak of while I am on the Lorazepam. I have quite a bit of muscle tension as well, so I assume that it really calms down the tension and the pain receptors . Since I only take it for the two day infusion schedule, my tolerance does not build up and it works quite well. If I thought it were a long term solution and I could function on it, I would take it all the time. But, unfortunately, one would not want to take Lorazepam long term.
