CIDP
Are there other ways to treat CIDP other than IVIG and cancer drugs? Also is it true that once you start IVIG you have to get it for the rest of your life in order to continue your daily life as best as you can?
Hello Lauren,
So you had first infusion of IVIG? Do you have CIDP? I have been getting IVIG since last November. After getting my first infusion for 5 horrible days of headaches, It did and stil does help me very much. Right now I get it at home for 2 days every three weeks. I'm able to walk better and not be so tired all the time, don't get me wrong I do have times when I'm wiped out but I just get as much rest a I can and then I go on. I will wait for you to email me back.
***@**** something in the subject line so I dont delete it.
