Suggest Treatment When Diagnosed With CIDP

I ve been diagnosed with possible CIDP and would like to consider treatments other than IVIG or steroids. Online searches may lead me down unproductive paths, but I m willing to consider unconventional treatments for what may be an autoimmune disorder. My home is in Hernando County, FL and I d prefer to be treated close to home, especially if there would be frequent or daily treatments.

Hi,

Few studies suggest a response to Rituximab (a chimeric monoclonal antibody) in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
