[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IVIG works for a lot of people.  I had several IVIG infusions over the course of 2 miscarriages.  I do think it helped my prep my immune system for our next course of action, which was neupogen, which did work and I now have 3 DCs as a result.

What numbers are elevated?  TNF-a and/or NKs?  You have both IVIG and IL in your post, does that mean they are doing both at the same time?  I think you will have better chances at CFA if they did the testing and found something that might be contributing to the implantation problems, and willing to treat it.[/quote]

Originally my NKs and cytokines (including TNF?) were elevated. In recent tests the NKs were normal again but cytokines still high, and I think there is another test marker she wants to treat as well. My labwork showed I would be responsive to intralipids or IVIG therapy but that I was more receptive to the IVIG. We just didn't know much about the difference although I guess IVIG is more expensive. What does the neupogen do?[/quote]
