Reply To: catheter for plasma exchange

Lori, I felt nothing at all from any of my PE treatments. The procedure doesn’t do anything that causes a sensation, but only removes harmfull components from the blood that allow healing to take place and thereby strength to be regained. It was after about six treatments that I first noticed recovery in strength, in the ability to raise one finger independent of the others.

My belief is that the relatively large number of treatments I received was important to my recovery, although I have no way to know this, of course.
