Well it looks like it is possible I will be starting #IVIG treatment for my #CIDP #Neuropathy.
Still got hurdles to go through before that would happen but maybe something to stop the progression.
What sucks is it may interfere with my trips this year. :(

Because I'm Medically Fascinating: Nerve samples from my skin punch biopsies are on their way to Harvard. (🤞🏻 seeing if I'm eligible for Immunoglobulin therapy, IVIG) I feel fancy!

A CVID (Common Variable ImmunoDeficiency) barbie doll wearing a t-shirt saying "JUST LET ME SIT DOWN" A sign on the box saying SYMPTOMS: Dizziness, frequent infections, autoimmune disorders, avoiding crowds. To the right of her is a chair with an IV bag above it. Two spray bottles 1. Antibiotics 2. Germ water.
Someone in a #CVID group on Facebook had #ChatGPT create this. She forgot #MASK and a #PORTCath in her chest...otherwise...I get it!

Please boost this. Our son Adam has autoimmune encephalitis and autoimmune seizures. IVIG is the only treatment that works, but BCBS of Oklahoma just denied it as “experimental” after 2 years of success. 💙 #IVIG #AutoimmuneEncephalitis #AutoimmuneEpilepsy

Today’s migraine brought to you by…
Spending so much time at the IVIG place waiting to get started despite my 10:45 appt time. I am exhausted after reclining and knitting (and forced socializing with a very talkative lady (54ish) who forgot her cell phone 😳).

Gute Übersicht zum aktuellen Forschungsstand (04/2025) von Autoantikörper-gerichteten Therapien bei #LongCovid & #MECFS
Vergleich aktueller Erkenntnisse zu #Rituximab, #Efgartigimod, #Daratumumab, #Immunadsorption, #BC007 & #IVIG
Die Tabelle im Link bietet eine schnelle Übersicht der Ergebnisse.
Ablauf: Verschlechterung, Chronifizierung, weitere Verschlechterung, Chronifizierung usw. Das letzte Wunder erwarte ich kein 2. Mal, sondern dass das nächste mal Ende ist.
Die einzige echte Hoffnung wäre vl noch #IVIG oder Autoimmunabsorption, bzw eine #CCI OP, falls simmnnvoll
#Prophylaxis with #IVIG remains the most effective intervention to prevent severe bleeding complications in #FNAIT, although pharmacologic inhibitors of placental IgG transport are under investigation and may supplant IVIG in the future.

Today’s an #IVIG day! I have a lite snack (cookies, yogurt, and fruit) and the same knitting project as last month, bc I’ve frogged it so many times. Thank the yarn gods for lifelines! After a few times, I finally put some in.
Things I forgot: water bottle, sandwich, Voodoo chips 😞
2 weeks after the 15th Help apheresis & 1.5 weeks after the 6th #ivig :
My #mecfs kid has been taking part digitally with avatar in 3 school lessons daily from 9.45 on since Thursday & after a break been able to do some homework in the afternoon. This was unthinkable before..
Reaching out to the social media hivemind for a hope that someone has an answer for me.
Do any of y'all who get (or give!) #IVIG infusions have experience with NON-Demerol methods of controlling rigors reactions? Particularly interested in hearing your experiences using tramadol and/or clonidine./1
one of the best feedback I could receive, mostly from the emotional perspective.
you can join the discussion on #ivig for #LongCovid or #mecfs on my blog
