You know, I always wanted to ask that question. Now if a person is completely numb in his feet (like Alan, who can't feel if he steps on something, or if he's bleeding from his foot ulcer, etc. etc.). Now Alan always has the pins and needles and burning between three toes of his left foot and certain toes of his right foot. Years ago, he was put on the fentanyl pain patch because he almost went out of his mind. Then came Dr. Theirl and no more pain patch. Now he is on IVIG and last night he said to me "Melody, I think this IVIG thing is working because I could never lie straight on my back without the tingling for long periods and now I can!!".

So if a person has numbness and tingling, then would it be safe to say that if that person has longer periods of no tingling or slight tingling, (where before he had severe pins and needles tingling) than that person can be said to be healing??????

It's a good question believe me.
