My only advice would be - be patient and give it time to work. Get your bloods done on a regular basis. I don't have an infusion every 6 months as I go by my gut feeling. I went 18 months before I felt I needed an infusion. We are all different. You will be fine. Take care xxxx

I was on it for awhile. No side effects but not very effective, for me.
