IV IG treatment for stills

[Guest guest]

Hi guys,

I haven't been posting lately ,but reading a lot.My

husband was diagnosed with stills 2 years ago and was diagnosed with

AVN last year(guess what caused it) damn right prednisone.

After 2 surgeries on both hips to correct the damage caused by

prednisone,

he is still taking prednisone (5mg)once a day.

A friend of mine suggested that injecting intravenous immuno

globulins into the body ,is a treatment that is used to treat alot

of immuno deficiency diseases like stills.

But my rheumatologist shut me off saying that this treatment is not

approved yet in the usa for stills.

Any body know anything about this treatment .Has anybody ever done

this before?

your input will be very much appreciated.

thanks

staying strong
