I would like to try the IVIG. A couple months ago I had edema for a couple days in both feet, then broke out in hives. Doc thought it was one of my meds so I stopped it. It took a long time to stop itching. The doc gave me prednisone for the hives, and I hadn't felt that good in many months. I asked the pain doc about the IVIG, if it would work, and she said at the time she thought it would but wanted to get to the root of the issue before covering up my symptoms. Well, now I have a dx, so I should ask her again.

Its crazy how just isolating yourself for a little bit will cause your immune system to go haywire the next time your out and about. I used to go out all the time. I would go to the mountains and just sit for a while, go to the library and read, or to the park. Now I hadn't been out in over a week before Oct 1st. I am starting to figure out its not the RSD/CRPS that weakens our immune systems, its the isolation because of the pain that helps to weaken it. Hope everyone has a good night.
