      Is there any support group that helps to pay the co-pays for IVIG?

      Some of the info I posted in the following thread might be of help to you:
      https://forum.gbs-cidp.org/topic/no-insurance/

      Sometimes you can get into a clinical trial and get IVIg treatments free of any significant cost. Do a search here and check out trials that are still recruiting:
      https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?term=IVIg&Search=Search

      Contact the IVIg/SCIg drug makers to see if they offer low cost programs:
      • Baxter Healthcare
      • CSL Behring
      • Grifols
      • Kedrion Biopharma
      • Octapharma

      If you suspect you may have contracted CIDP through a flu shot, please search these forums for keywords “VICP” and “Vaccine”. There is some recent discussion here to:
      https://forum.gbs-cidp.org/topic/metal-toxicity/

      Hope some of this helps.
