I am so far responding well to IVIG and will be going to my neuro on the 15th, expecting to get setup for monthly treatments. My impression is best to try to keep with same manufacturer, is that your understanding?

If you are up to and can/will, please post update how your follow-up goes. I will try to do likewise as I think the information is helpful for not just you and I but for others to follow...thanks!

Hi Stephanie,

I will be having two bags in two days. I didn't find out what brand they used in the hospital, I wish I had. I will try to find out the brand before my next infusions. Insurance has approved but waiting for the visiting nurse to schedule my home infusion.
