CIDP is difficult disease to diagnose. I suffered from tingling and burning sensations, as well as loss of reflexes and weakness in my arms and legs. An MRI ruled out MS and an EMG with a GREAT neurologist (after 3 neurologists said nothing was wrong with me) ended with a diagnosis of CIDP. I chose IvIG as a course of treatment but please discuss all options with your doctor if this is the diagnosis. You can also go to the GBS/CIDP Foundations website - they have some very helpful information. Stay positive if you can. Most of all, be gentle with yourself and help your family learn about the disease, Their support will be so important.
