2/11 count was 48. Saw doc on 2/16 count was down to 16. Decided to start IVIg next day. Had CBC done in morning count was down to 6. Doc insisted on giving me platelets and IVIg at the same time! I looked like a monster! One IV in port and another in arm. ugh. No adverse reactions to IVIg, just headache and feeling "not right". Went away over the weekend. had CBC on Saturday, up to 174! Woo Hoo! This morning count was 211! Double Woo Hoo! Doc insists I finish 5 IVIg treatments then we'll start Promacta. Sigh. I want this to go away.Please Log in or Create an account to join the conversation.
