For Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy "Three days after completing the first three-day treatment, seem to have very modest improvement in balance. Have had very mild headache helped by drinking plenty of water and have experienced some fatigue. So far, benefits outweigh the side effects."

For Primary Immunodeficiency Syndrome "Privigen has been the only IVIG drug I can infuse at the recommended rates. Instead of an eight-hour 40 gram day, I'm down to 4.5 hours and 35 grams. Privigen has less fillers and preservatives which has made it a better infusion for me. Only one headache in two years and I was dehydrated as evidenced by my bloodwork results. And I knew I had not had enough water the day before."

"It has greatly improved the quality of my life by reducing my skin sores and muscle deterioration. It also improves my level of energy. I have infusions for two consecutive days every four weeks in a hospital clinic. I drink lots of water before, during, and after the infusions, and rarely have headaches. I am injected with fluids first. Then the infusion starts very slowly at 19 ml/hour (for 30 mins), increasing slowly every 30 mins until a maximum of 125 ml/hour. One session takes between 4-5 hours."
