Reply To: CIDP in combination with other diseases

Hey Alexago,

I am one of the “lucky” ones to have been diagnosed with multiple conditions. First, I found out that I have CVID (Common Variable Immunodeficiency). Then, about 8 years later, I started having new symptoms. It took another 2 years for multiple neurologists to determine that I have CIDP. It’s highly likely that my CVID led to my attacks of CIDP, but so few patients have CIDP (and even fewer have both), the verdict is still out.

I never did feel like something extra was going on, but once my CIDP symptoms began, I definitely suspected that my wonky immune system had to be the culprit.

Good luck to you!
