IVIG is only indicated for people with autoimmune disease. It is not only very expensive but has potential side effects including stroke and heart attacks.

Benzos are highly addictive. I've been sober from alcohol for a few years but I went to rehab to get dry. I saw several people there kicking a nasty benzo habit that started with a prescription from the doc. Withdrawals from benzos can be life threatening if taken long enough in high doses.
