A member in remission from small cell lymphocytic lymphoma shared a difficult stretch of ongoing headaches, eye pain and numbness, and other troubling symptoms after stopping IVIG infusions, sparking an outpouring of support and shared experiences. Several members encouraged her to visit the ER if needed, and updates from her showed partial relief from steroids and antibiotics, though symptoms continued to fluctuate. A recurring theme was the importance of resuming IVIG, with members sharing how much the infusions helped them feel better, and one member celebrating alongside her as she prepared to restart treatments.

Thank you Carol, no real answer, my oncologist is looking for a specialist to see me for connective tissue disorder and she is going to see if my grant has any money left to at least get me 1 more IVIG infusion. She sent in an antibiotic and steroids for me to try to reduce my headache and eye numbness in the meantime.
