I Will Start Transfusion Monday. Is There Anythinbg I Can Do To Make This The Most Positive Eperience And Likely To Help Me?
LRP4 - Mg diagnosis after many tests with neurologist. Arms, legs, hands affected. Difficukt speaking at times.
Bill to pass the time look into audiobooks from the Library. They are often free and can download to a smartphone.
My husbsnd had 6 of the plasmapharesis done.They told us that 4 is the usual dose but he responded so well they decided to do 6. It helped him tremendoulsly in his recovery. He was like he was paralized except for his hands and just within the day of each treatment he regained more and more of his movement back.
Thanks Jerrie, I had the good fortune to have my injection in the arm no paim!
I had both IVIG 2x & Plasmapharesis once while in the hospital. All were premedicated with Tylenol & Benadryl, and I was closely monitored during all infusions. The Plasmapharesis lasted 3 hours each time over a 4 day period. The insertion of the port line in my neck was not a pleasant experience, and after each, I was exhausted and slept for a couple of hours that afternoon.
Good luck with yours, and be blessed! 🙏
