I know that the numbers aren't high for success with IVig infusions. I wish that they had more effect on the pain, but if it's slowing the progression of CIDP, I figure that's a reasonable reason to continue with them for me. I hope you're able to find a helpful treatment.

I'm having surgery next Monday, and after that I'm starting to take low dose Naltrexone, hoping it will reduce the pain in my feet and ankles. I think I've tried every other possible medication, and if it doesn't help I'll be going back to MS Contin while I wait for a pain pump to become accessible here in central Oregon.
