    Kathy,

    Thank you so much for sharing your story in such great detail. The more I read, the more I can anticipate possible issues. I started taking Prednisone on July 16 and received a high-dose IVIG infusion on July 18-19. As of today, I’m already feeling much better; I’m stronger, and my walking is almost back to normal.

    I hope I’m one of the lucky 85% (that’s the success rate that my neurologist has given to CIDP patients responding to Prednisone/IVIG).

    Thanks again, and continued good luck to you!

    I was happy to see this post! I had what was thought to be a second attack of GBS in March 2018. My diagnosis was switched to CIDP after symptoms continued for over 4 months. I have been sweating more than ever before in my life, and I was unaware of any connection to my condition before.

    It’s nice to read that the sweating may actually be a sign of healing!
