Reply To: Infection From IVIG

[Community Member]

I have ebbn doing IVIG for about 8 years and so far no infections. That may be about to change.

I was recently in the hospital for chest pain that was identified as pericarditis. I am working with a doctor to find out why my blood counts are going up and down. I get a chill when he is talking as I hear things like IVIG can cause infection, steroids, prednisone, Lupus, RA and more.

But no infections yet.
