Default Good results with IVIG and now new problem

I just finished 5 days of IVIG and I am feeling very good. My muscle pains are all gone and I can breathe comfortably. Before IVIG, my neuro ordered an EMG for some of my symptoms that did not fit MG - tingling, numbness, the sensation of being stuck with needles and knives. The EMG showed spinal damage. The neuro thought it was probably due to compensating when I walk due to the MG. I am waiting for the spinal MRI. I never felt the back pain before, probably because the muscle pain was much more intense. Now that the muscle pain is gone, I can feel the back pain.

My question is, did anyone else experience this? If so how did they correct it and what did you use for pain? Acetominophen, ibuprophen?

thanks, as always,
kathie
