My insurance denied IVIG coverage. There's nothing else to try. I wish I could forget I have this and just live. I have become this condition. I'm seeing a Christian counselor. That helps. I know different medications work for people, and I'm not on any, so I don't want people to become discouraged.

@swartzki, In a previous post you mentioned you had been taking alpha lipoic acid and have not had burning in your arms. Are you still taking the ALA?

@swartzki I'm sorry about the insuance denial. Has your Dr. attempted to fight it for you? Do you have an auto immune disease? I hear that's the criteria for IVIG.

Good luck with counseling. That's a good way of thinking outside the box for treatment (and sanity).
