somewhat ‘mushy’ answers about this issue. I think if you look up ‘blood donor questionaire’ you will find that donating blood is OUT for anyone receiving IVIG. But, I was told that in my state that it’s all reviewed on a case-by-case basis regarding CIDP and what organs might be used.
Ironic isn’t it? That those of us on IVIG would be ineligible for potential recipients who would probably NEED IVIG following their transplants to avoid rejection?
Somehow, in so many ways the whole thing doesn’t ‘compute’.
I intend to stay on the donor list and truly hope that should something happen to me, that good could come out of it all. I can always hope.
