I am told my issue is Polyneuropathy caused by an autoimmune condition that may be exacerbated by gluten. Treatment includes a gluten-free diet and Ivig. I have undergone the first, 3 day session of infusions. 5 more will follow, at 4 week intervals. At some point NCS will be performed to compare velocities/amplitudes to baseline values. Too early to comment on efficacy.( I will add that my first Neurologist conducted an NCS, concluding SFSN: Idiopathic, for which there is no treatment. I am glad I pursued a second opinion)
