Questions on IVIg treatment for what I have: Axonal sensory-motor

Hi

I have IVig treatments to help with a bad reaction to chemotherapy. I also have neuropathy and trigeminal neuralgia, etc... I think it helps my neuropathy, but it is not like a pill it needs to build up. My neuropathy did not feel better over night, it also has not become worse either. I have my moments of idiocy when I do something that will aggrevate the PN, and for the most part I can calm it down. Not cure it, just back to where it was.

As regards to the IVig treatment. I drink about 120 ounces the day before, day of and day after. I am prone to migraines and IVig if I do not do the above is just pure pain.
I also do cranial sacral therapy either before or after, walk around, and just move as much as possible. My insurance dictates I have at home, so I can do more than when it was in an infusion center. To me, the IVig takes a few months to start feeling any improvement or lack of decline, it is not instant gratification.
