Default SPS caused by IVIG for MG?

Yes, indeed. Thank you, kiwi33. I am wondering if other MG patients on forum have had SPS result from IVIG treatment. I know that can happen. It is currently unclear which came first in my case. Was the SPS present in lesser form before I started on IVIG? It has certainly ramped up since starting the treatment. This is all such a mystery, since IVIG is also used to treat SPS.
