I had my IVIG today and things didn’t go well. I was not able to get my regular brand of IVIG, so they switched brands on me (again). This one is called Carimune ® NF and I hit a few of the "Adverse Reactions" (side effects) head on. First I was running to the bathroom, then I started getting a headache, and to top it off, the nausea hit.

Since it was a different brand, it needed to be infused at a different rate; so I didn’t get out of Rex until after 3pm, and I’m usually done WAY before then.

Part of me thinks I should be happy that I can get ANY type of IVIG, considering the fact there is supposed to be a shortage of the stuff, (or so we are constantly being told) but I'm tired of being the "test subject".

All in all, I’m soo happy with the way things are going. This was my 3rd treatment with the new three-week schedule and I don’t seem to have any "issues" like I did last year. So it seems my body is holding the treatments. YEA!!
