Reply To: At what point should I go to the emergency room?

My insurance will not let me use emergency for cidp the cost is on me then, my neurologist told me the same thing if i get too weak then go to emergency only because he didn’t want admit me into hospital. I have read that symptoms lasting longer then 3 months are a sure sign of cidp I am not sure what would happen if you go to emergency I think a staff neurologist would look you over and get the history then consult your doc. The last time I got plasma exchange I had to get wheeled into hospital and because I waited too long I had to get a extra treatment to get back my balance and strength. Better to bitch now get a treatment started and then worry about what it is called because GBS and CIDP use the same treatments.
