Thanks again all. I do have insurance so hopefully Ill be covered. So seems like IVIG is used more than Plasmapheris huh? Im just afraid. I mean so far, the IV's of medrol (I think thats what its called) seems to help. But I still try to talk neuro into oral steroids first (like right now). I worry that if I start IVIG, I will be doing that from now on....But I also worry that Im missing out. What if I could not only breath better but I could walk and use my hands normally again- I could drive!.....So much to consider. Thanks again
