Hi Marinav....not had IVIG ..but cyclophosphomide infusions and now on Mycophenolate plus other meds....I would say that S.sc. is only a mental disease if you let it be so. Try to think positively...I have read about IVIG and it appears to be an effective treatment. Good luck going forward and better health for you.
Thank you marilynmcl... I am undergoing my fifth month of five consecutive days each month of IVIG and it appears to be slowly making changes. Blood pressure is so much better.
