Subject: CIDP Neuropathy I have been diagnosed with chronic inflammtory demylinating poly neuropathy. I am currently undergoing the ivig treatments. I have had three treatments each of which have been three weeks apart. I feel no change in the numbness or pain in my legs(from toes to hips) and arms(from elbows to finger tips. My question is: how soon might I start feeling some difference with the numbing and pain? I am currently taking 60mg of slow release morphine and lortab at night. I have tried about 17 of the other drugs ie, amatriptiline, paxil, prozac, tenormin, etc. none helped my situation. I would also like to know if anyone else has gone through the ivig treatments and if they have had success with this treatment. Thank you for answering my questions. Dan Tallman | |
