I get IVIG every 3 weeks. I also take Mestinon and Cellcept. My infusion takes about 3-1/2 hours at home with a Nurse present. No issues so far. My MG is controlled pretty good at this time.
I had my first doses of Rituximab in April. I had slight side effects (afterwards I'm very tired for that day and maybe the next) I am very happy with the results of this treatment..Yes, I still have some limited activity and heat & humidity takes it's toll but I have not felt this good and done so well for years. I'm thankful that my new neurologist found me a treatment that works!
Ivig did not help me. I was given Rituxan and still waiting for results. Hoping to add Vyvgart soon.
