Oh, this is GOOD to know!! Some things you just can't research on the internet -- first-hand accounts are BEST!
Aseptic meningitis -- worst headache(s) I've ever had! And I have bad migraines.
From what I've heard, MOST people don't have a problem with plasmapheresis (PEX). I was the oddball -- BP bottoming out. The central line was NOT fun -- tubes in your neck and stitches holding the contraption in place. I was soooooo glad to get that thing removed! But, if given a choice, in an emergency I'd rather do PEX than IVIG. The aching, rashes, and general discomfort after IVIG -- like having the flu for a month!
