MemberIVIG infusions have been returned my hope and a lot of my health. I still have fatigue a lot. But I now have the breathing capacity to push ahead. I am infused every 6 to 7 weeks for 4 hours. I begin to feel the effect fade in the summer heat about 5.5 to 6 weeks and supplement with Mestinon.
I am 71 years old and was diagnosed in 2015 with a thymic tumor. Removed. Organ contained though very large, it left its lasting impact of gMG.
