yes he did have 2 rounds of IVIG once before his thymectomy and one awhile after...we can't say it helped alot. yes he was positive for antibodies.. B12 ok thyroid ok electolytes ok.when they weaned him off his prednisone before it was very slow...i noticed the weakening but "thought" his body would readjust....now i know different. since they started him on 60mg of prednisone 2 days ago he has seen a slight improvement...very slight but we will take it....unfortunately the azathioprine worked quickly but his liver did not like it..cellcept not working as well but we are still hopeful. his symptoms are all ocular.
