Default IVIG help

Dr. Gupta said he was not familiar with MG or Neuropathy and we need to get a local doctor not just the ones in cleveland. Well in Macon, GA our family dr and rheumo doctor done have a clue and only pain doctor knows. They said they would do the First IVIG 400 treatmeng in outpatient for 4 hours over 5days but mentioned doing it in one day over 4 hour period next month. Said they would try to push it, he said he didnt normal gtive this much IVIG as he normal give 2 patient who are on chemo 2 help strengthy but thought they could administer same time.confused as my husband wasnt told to benedryl, water or anything...and doctor question rather ivig alone would help.

will ivig help MG and neuropathy and celiac without other meds besides blood pressure, anti-inflammatories, water pills, and excessive pain and muscle relaxers he is already on....
