Hi Jane,

Myasthenia gravis ( MG ) isn't a type of Vasculitis so I am not sure if you will get any replies. Although there are a few patients with Vasculitis who get IVIG the majority are on medications to suppress their immune system. I am not sure if there is a separate MG or neurological conditions group where you may get some replies.
