Reply To: Getting sick surely does affect the pain level of one's CIDP

Hey Bryan,

Sorry to hear that you got sick, which possibly triggered the CIDP symptoms. Since I am new to this like you I am not sure the correlation. I do know that my infusion nurse originally asked me if I ever had sinus infections and I told her yes (who doesn’t living in Houston) and she said a side benefit of the ivig infusions was that they would keep me from getting sick. Of course, if it was food poisoning, probably could not have prevented that. Hope this is temporary for you and you go back to improving each day.

Jeff
