Yes, I was given IVIG on two different occasions at two different dosages. Neither time did I get any benefit but everybody’s different so it could be a benefit to you

From what I understand - for IVIG to be effective you must have an infusion once a month - every month to get relief.
I presently get an infusion every other month for a blood disease but I’m looking in to increasing the doses.
From AI;
Standard IVIG Dosing for Neuropathy
In the treatment of inflammatory neuropathies like CIDP, the maintenance dose of IVIG is commonly given every 3 to 6 weeks.
Getting IVIG monthly is a sound step to improve refractory neurological symptoms, but it requires full coordination and approval from your medical team.
