I to had IVIG with no improvement of symptoms, so now my Neurologist wants to try me on Retuximab but my insurance company won’t approve it unless I do plasma exchange first, which I do not want to do.
It’s very complicated doing plasmaphoresis and I’m so,afraid of getting an infection in my central line in my chest,which is what they have to insert first.
There’s also no guarantee plasma exchange will work.
I’m trying to work with Medicare now to let me bypass the plasma exchange and just get the Rituximab.
Already did it with no improvement in my symptoms.
Have PN and woyld love to try IVIG. How often do you take one and what is the cost?
