Default High Dosage IVIG Experience
Hi everyone,
I am a new member from UK with recent diagnosis of generalised autoimmune myasthenia gravis.
At moment all standard treatments are contraindicated and I am meant to be having high dosage IVIG for second time at rate of 2 grams /kg body weight over 5 days in hospital- I also have damaged immune system with IgA deficiency and anti IgA antibodies.
Does anyone have experience of being given high doses of IVIG over shorter time as my local non-secialist hospital is trying to give the full course as an outpatient over 3 days.
Many thanks,
Magister.
