Has Any One Had Experience With IVIG Therapy Due To Low Immunoglobulin Levels? I Have CLL.
I have had this situation as well. My doctor is hesitant about treatment of IVIG therapy. He suggested some life style changes.. I took a good hard look at those suggestions and some of them made sense to me. I stay away from people that have colds or don’t feel well, my coworkers always came to work sick..it was no wonder I caught everything. Adjusting to the situation really has helped. IVIG therapy is very expensive even with good insurance. Good luck and hang in.
Yes, people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) often receive intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy when their antibody levels are low. Here are some key points:
- Purpose: IVIG helps protect those with weakened immune systems from infections
- Frequency: Typically given once a month while antibody levels are low. Show Full Answer
Thank you for all the information, I believe I’ll wait before starting the IVIG therapy. Your information has been very helpful and appreciated.
