Default "flare?"

Hi, as many of you know I'm a long-time forum member, but, doing well, have been here less often of late. (Though I am happy to say lizajane.org is doing well!).

I've been strugglng with sinus infection which was successfully treated for February through May, and then returned in June. With it I've developed new neuropathy symptoms. My skin, everywhere, gets pricks and an itchiness, and there are patches which are chronically worse than other places. This is not one of those symmetrical things that I used to have. I never had small fiber involvement before, not like this.

I saw my neuro yesterday, and found that I had lost my ankle jerks, my knee jerks were down, and I've lost my arm reflexes. All of this fits what I'm experiencing.

So, even though I was improving over 8 years, there's a setback here. I'm trying to get an appt with Dr Latov, to see if he thinks IVIG can help. But that might not be so easy.

Oy.
