Joanne, my daughter is 6 months out of treatment now and still has all those things. Not so much the nausea but she does have frequent leg pains and diarrhea. She had them throughout treatment as well. I've always questioned her doctors about the leg pains and headaches as well. But they really have no answers for me.

We had to leave Alabama early as a nasty cough set in quickly and i was afraid we'd get trapped in Atlanta for treatment of fever. Can I tell you how tired I am of cancer ruling our lives?

Joanne, did it help Sam's counts and keep her out of the hospital? What ways did it help her?

Susan - Sam had IVIG treatments for 4 months. It is not uncommon for ALL kids and many of them did/do receive it. Sam had no side effects and it definately brought her IGG levels back up.

hey Annike! Did I hear correctly that Liem did the IGG test and that his level came back low? What was his level and did they do the IVIG(?) transfusions on him? They did the test on Presley, her level came back at 483 or something like that which is very low but still in the normal range.
