Thanks everyone...I do take Benadryl and Tylenol before IVIg. Angie, I think it is interesting that we both had the same reaction to IVIg and we are both from Minnesota. May lean more toward lot# than infusion time...but I will definitely ask them to slow it down. I did drink a ton of extra fluids the day before and the day of the infusion. Ro, I may try your trick with the extra Benadryl before and after although I am so tired now I will probably be comatose!

Lois, I agree with the Mestinon OD issues - whenever I have taken too much I know and this is not how that feels. I tried his dosing recommendations and can't function so I left a message tonight and went back to what feels right rather than what he thinks sounds right.

I have IVIg again Friday and see the neurologists nurse practioner next week. It'll all be fine but sometimes you just have to rant! Thanks for the support.
