Hey Brandon- good luck man.
I have Ivig every month and it's pretty boring, and painless. But it takes up 2 a week for it to work fully I think maybe even longer. You'll slowly start to get more strength I think. - I do.
As for the thymectomy, I had mine a year and 3 months or something ago. At first it was pretty bad because of complications after surgery. But then a month after I got a lot worse and all that but now it seems to be either better or it's my medication.
But you'll do great I'm sure man. Good luck
