The headache is gone- but flu like symptoms are still here.

Haha i Was toasting at thanksgiving dinner the other night about how I haven't been to the hospital for a few months and then the next morning I wake up and head to the ER. Oh well


And I was supposed to fly back to school today, but need to reschedule obv. Because I haven't ate in 2 days- and puke everything upp. Urg!

Hope your all well
This is a known side effect of IVIG, in patients with neurological diseases. and probably occurs more in the lyophilized forms (those that come as powder and have to be reconstituted) then in the liquid forms. (there is some data to suggest that in the medical literature).

so, may require changing the type of IVIG you are recieving.
