I have had Hypogammaglobulinemia for over 18 years. My monthly IVIG treatments have made me incredibly healthy until last year, when I had a severe prostatitis event (saved by surgery) and recently when I was diagnosed with Guillian Barre Syndrome. I have also had PMR for 4 years. The GBS is throwing me. I had 4 strong IVIG treatments, but GBS is unpredictable with pain and numbness even after treatments. Do any of the supplements on Amazon help?

When considering complementary treatments or supplements, be open-minded yet skeptical. Learn about the potential benefits and risks.
Keep in mind that natural substances can also have toxicities, adverse side effects and treatment interactions. Supplements are not regulated and can be marketed without rigorous clinical testing.
