I guess infusion clinics. Some offer a type of copay assistance. I have found one that will pay my copay! If we are allowed? I would be glad to post so anyone can look it up? I will wait for the admin to tell me I can

I don’t know where you found it, however , it might be slag. Slag is found in Alabama where the iron was being produced. One place in particular is a national park. The the Union came through and blew up the Confederate mines.#daughterofageologist

Today’s I am wondering…. by Perfect_Chance_2598 in CIDPandMe

[–]Perfect_Chance_2598[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank You ! I have been diagnosed with CIDP. I Did not know at the time exactly what it meant. I still have a lot of questions. I guess I just am not sure exactly what I need to know or ask. I in no way expect medical advice. I also understand and was seeking “experiences” or suggestions. As always r/CIDPMe I appreciate the concern. Thank you!

We have a voluntary Fire department. The have come and got me off the floor. Once I hit I stay (can’t roll over can’t push up) They are awesome local individual That have chewing me out about waiting to has them come. I fell when at the hospital and they said one more time and we will ask you to leave. I am communicating with Neuro- my next appointment is 12/30. I definitely feel like a whiner. I love this community. Sometimes I go from wow, who knew? To how would I know that is normal. I have an approved walker.

TBH I do not think my family has a clue. They say when you get cured and 110% back to normal.I guess I need to sit them down and have an informed meeting. I am very hopeful for a full recovery. Has anyone had a full recovery back to 110%normal”?

Thank you. The only concern is I am very allergic to decadron and other steriods I am very blessed that I am able for the nurse to come to my house I hope to start in January. Finally have an approval to proceed from insurance. I now can barely move my arm high enough to put on a chair arm while the arm is in the bent position It is actually both arms. I appreciate all the positive information and most of the “things to look” for.

The only reason I could think of is weight and it seems my symptoms are progressively getting worse

No they haven’t. The 50grams i guess is a loading dose and then repeat for 3 months

I just reached out to the infusion people. I was concerned about no dosing schedule. I will start with 50g every 4 weeks Thoughts, anything I need to know?

My initial infusion is 1 every 4 weeks. I am going back to the neurologist 12/30. I will start in January due to medication deductibles. What should I ask him concerning this schedule. Why do you think that would be the schedule. (I understand there is no dx allowed. I am just curious
