Hi Everyone,
I haven't been on in the past few months. I started IVIG is the spring. I started with 1 treatment a month. I think it helped, I was sick for 3-4 days after but then had a pain level of 3-4 for about a week to 10 days which is great for me. They just recently increased the treatments to twice a month. They wanted to start me on another drug too but I refused. I am wondering if anyone else here is getting IVIG. It would be wonderful to have a connection to someone who is. I see alot of people on the MG site who get it but I have not been dx'd with that. Actually, as some of you now, I have had a positive nerve biopsy for small fiber neuropathy. Then went to Hopkins and they said possible sjogrens. I think I have had every blood test and catscan imagineable to no avail. I have seen neuro and rheum and I am considering immunologist or genetic testing. Does anyone know of someone who is good at diagnosing. I think this is all a guessing game for them. I was just going along with the "we may never know" answer from doctors but I think I really need to know. Any suggestions? I have begun to feel weakness in my muscles but they told me it was because I did 20 minutes on the eliptical and treadmill instead of 15 mins each. I think that answer is nuts. By the way I went to the gym because I feel like I am really losing strength in my legs. I continue to work full time but don't know how I can keep it up. Well sorry for the long note. Just looking for some support and someone who understands. Thanks, hopeful ![]() |
