Hi RWinney
Thanks for all the great info.
BTW, it sounds like you have a great doc.
You indicate that you take lidocaine infusions, and that the next step may be IVIG.
May I ask what your diagnosis is? I thought that IVIG was indicated for CIDP, Did you have a test which indicates you may be a candidate for IVIG?
Keep up the good work, and best of luck!
Jeff

Hey Jeff
I have Small Fiber Neuropathy from b12 deficiency and did not test positive for any auto immune diseases. My thoughts were that I did not qualify for IVIG for this reason but Dr says otherwise. I have not pressed him on his theory yet. One step at a time.
