Hi, I am interested in the fact you have been taking treatments for several years-I think that is what I am facing too. Do you still have to have the EEG's occasionaly? I feel they are so barbaric and just plain horrible to go through. Do you take any other treatments with the ivig? I was diagnosed about three years ago and most of my trouble is in my legs. I need braces for foot drop so I can walk using a walker. My upper body so far is okay, however I broke my leg a month ago, so now I am looking at a bunch of therepy to keep what strenght I have left. Any information would be appreciated. Di
