Wow, 2 and 2.5 hours for IVIG; that's amazingly quick. It's not common for me to hear that, and I am so happy you are in and out, but probably not as happy as you both are!

It's my understanding that many Americans, if not most, have their treatments in-home. In Canada, I am not aware of anyone receiving treatments other than Outpatients. (If any Canadians are having this at home, please let me know.)

WGreen, you brought up a very important issue, and that is hydration. It's
important to both IVIG, plasmapheresis, and...every day living. Keep hydrated!
It can make all the difference in how you feel.
