Anyone been diagnosed with CIDP? It's very rare

73 age here. Yes I was diagnosed in late 2019/early 2020. Then 3 years of twice weekly IVIG and steroids and then weekly SCIG Hizentra and occasional steroids since for late ups.
Not an easy battle but it can, in my experience, achieve a halt in the progress of the disease and with PT etc. get some limited progress.
I have a good life with a lot of effort, good doctors and family support.

Living with it sucks but what really makes me irked, is that many times, I have to explain it to some doctors. I, like you, have had a pretty lucky and great life and family. Makes “dealing” with it easier…
