HI Steff!
The IVIG is working for me and I'm tickled pink! I just had my 5th infusion yesterday......I have them at home now......and I've been going 16 hrs with out pain. The 2 days after the infusion has been very hard on me.......as it's working......but it's well worth it to feel better over all!
I have Chronic Axonal Neuropathy....an autoimmune Neuropathy. I've been very lucky that my insurance is covering the whole cost for me. I've been having MANY tests and then the nerve/muscle biopsy so I've covered all my copays and coinsurance costs already this year.
If you are thinking about IVIG I hope it works as well for you!
