Guest guest Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I think IGG levels always go up on GG, unless there is some issue blocking it from doing so. So isn't the rise expected in anyone taking it? In other words it going up is proof or disprove of anything because that's what it does in all of us. I guess they must have been just trying to improve immune function? Kind of like short term steroid use too?

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 From what I have read and understand is that it may help in some but not all. Since I am at higher risk for more serious infections and that my B lymphocytes and my T supresser cells are very low, they felt it may help. I cycle high post IGG ( 1,000) and drop down lower right before the next diose but not as low as I started showing that it is at least boosting my immunity. It is supossedly a apprx. 23 day cycle begore it leaves tour system. He said if i missed a month my levels would be back in the 500's. From the hospital I know Dr. sees many with primary immune disorders and is the most knowledgable around here. Most of his work has been in hemophilia. But he looks at the whole person instead if the condition. That is why he was my second opinion and he did further tests to determine that it would likely help. He also thinks the burning mouth problems I have is herpes that keeps coming back because of low immunity. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Oh goodness no, on my original > > > I had put them, but they do not seem > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > to come with.
