Default I have some good news

after three years of trying to get them I just got a phone call that the insurance company has approved IVIG for me. I am very excited and praying they work. They are starting with 1 rx every 4 weeks.
Has anyone had them? What should I expect?

I just know that they are for people who have autoimmune diseases. Hope this works for you.

I hope it works for you. This maybe what you've been needing.

Hopeful,

Please keep me informed on how they work for you, I have been turned down for iVIg, so this makes me hopeful that if I need them I may someday be approved. I pray it works for you, remember to keep very hydrated on the days you have the treatments this is really important, Blessings, Jan
