Problem with IVIG treatment
I have been receiving IVIG infusions every three weeks since April. It's been helping. I had the latest infusions this week on Monday and Tuesday. I wasn't feeling well when I went in for treatment. I was having a lot of MG symptoms and feeling very rough, but I assumed that the remedy was having the IVIG treatment...that's what the doctors would probably say. I had the treatments and this time, it's very odd. It didn't really seem to help very much. Usually it helps quite a lot. I am still having a lot of difficulty with breathing and walking, and other things are difficult, including vision and swallowing/eating. Have other encountered this? I don't know why the treatment didn't go well this time when it previously went so well.
I tried to contact my doctor, but there was no response. I don't know what to do in this situation. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'd be glad to hear about it.
Thank you,
Erin
