A member asked:
I had ivig for small fiber neuropathy and got aseptic meningitis. what are the chances this happening again if i try it. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not none: It is certainly possible for this complication to happen again. Discuss the pros and cons (risk-benefit ratio) of IVIg Rx for your condition, including if you both think it helped. If it did and you want to continue receiving it, discuss with your doctor the possibility of pretreating you with e.g. prednisone, prednisolone or methylprednisolone for a couple of days prior to the infusion.
