Hello my dear peeps, an update on my health. Although clinically there is a lot of improvement the ENMG didn’t show any progress. So, I have mixed feelings. No treatment coming up, unless I deteriorate. Anyway, I’m slowly building up the πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ. I’m at 4x2’ with 2’ walking in between. Last year I planned to run the Rotterdam marathon to πŸ₯³ my 60th birthday. I’m 60 now, Garmin thinks I’m 20 🀭.

New #LongCovid case report:

β€œThis patient provides exploratory evidence that high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin was associated with sustained clinical recovery from long COVID over 1 year of follow-up, accompanied by immunological changes…”

Hello my dear peeps, I had my 2nd cycle of immunoglobulines the last week of Feb. and I can feel my feet! πŸ₯³ It is not normal yet, but so much better. I started very carefully jogging a little bit during my walks (5x1’1’). Physiotherapist is a bit worried, warned to take my phone and turn on the location service. End of March another ENMG to see how things are.

Hello my dear peeps, I’m in hospital for a 4 day cycle of immunoglobulines. I’ve had 2 days and all went well till last night. Terrible headache and I vomited this morning. Waiting for labresults to start the infusion today at a slower rate.

Happy πŸ˜ƒ! Beautiful day and I walked 8 km yesterday. Exercises are paying off! I wasn’t able to walk more than 4 km last month, so this is a real improvement! πŸ’ͺ

Hello my dear peeps, the idea was to run the Rotterdam marathon spring 2026 for my 60th birthday. But as I’m diagnosed last month with CIDP, running is no longer possible. My goal now is to improve my balance and walk β€œnormally”. Treatment is booked for last week of Jan and last week of Feb. 🀞Wishing you all a happy festive season and all the best for 2026! πŸŽ„

Reaching out to the social media hivemind for a hope that someone has an answer for me.

Do any of y'all who get (or give!) #IVIG infusions have experience with NON-Demerol methods of controlling rigors reactions? Particularly interested in hearing your experiences using tramadol and/or clonidine. /1
