Default IVIG infusions for RSD
My doc showed me some data on an RSD treatment called IVIG infusions. It is mainly used on patients with immune system or blood platelet issues. Doc says it is recommended for patients that havent had good results from other treatments. The study info she showed me only had about 20 patients. I was just wondering if anyone has any info about this treatment...thanks!!!

I am looking into this too. If you google it there was a study in Liverpool that showed some relief using it. I am trying to find a doc who will do it for me. I have a nuero appt in a few weeks....My pain doc does not do IVIG

Carol.....is that the same study that only had 13 patients in it? If so, thats a start, but I would like to see more documented evidence before I try it. Definately something to keep an eye on.
