A member asked:
Can you tell me about dealing with hypogammaglobulinemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Frequent infections: The most common form is CVID or Common Variable Immunodeficiency. The decision to treat with IVIG or Intravenous Immunoglobulin infusions is something to be discussed with your doctor. Factors include severity, frequency of infections, tolerance to conventional treatment with antibiotics not to mention cost which is quite high.
