I also have Sjogren's and have been on Octagam for over a year.
my rheumie took me off plaquenil as she felt the IvIg should be sufficient. I also have muscle wasting and loss of balance which seems worse. Sence the plaquenil has a type of leg pain associated with it, she didn't want it clouding the issue. You might ask your rheumie about it.

Thanks so much! I will check with my Rheumatologist about the medications. I know Plaquenil can have side effects with long term use for the eyes, but didn’t know about leg pain. Hope the Octagam works for you!
