Default Newly diagnosed, questions IVIG?

Hello,

I have had mixed connective tissue disease and recently got diagnosed with vascular peripheral neuropathy that is affecting some of my autonomic nerves also. I have had MCTD for 9 years and have had numbness off and on coming and going all during this time. I guess it just now showed damage to legs.
I am having a relapse and the neurologist wants to me to take IVIG treatments. My question is has anyone had this and how did it work? I have read good and bad. Also, does insurance usually cover this and is it costly?
