IDF 2017 National Conference session, "Understanding Immunoglobulin Therapy" was presented by Dr. Mark Ballow, MD and Dr. M. Elizabeth Younger, CRNP, PhD on June 17, 2017.
Dr. Younger has since joined us for a conversation about IG and the COVID antibodies now found in blood plasma, which further protects IG users from developing dangerous infections. czcams.com/video/NAm1WmXgqwU/video.html&t
I live with CVID and receive bi-weekly IVIG infusions that not only saved my life but keeps me alive, and no insurance company will take that away from me, but just like metric, the whole developed world has universal healthcare, but the United States just doesn't understand it.
@@todoldtrafford you're hilarious! I was born 30 years after the "boomer" generation. Ps who even says that anymore? "Ok boomer" was trending on twitter when Obama was still president.
It is truly disgraceful. Even if I were working full time as a nurse, the fact that once monthly IVIG infusions alone costing $28,000 would be many times more than I would earn in a year. I was almost hit with a $140,000 bill a while back for it as my insurance refused to cover it until I got grant funding, which reduced it to a "dirt cheap" price of $4,500. It took repeated hospitalizations for sepsis and rare infections along with proving a sibling also had common variable immunodeficiency for insurance to cover it.
Article about Imunoglobulin is grate, thank you for information...
Excellent video, thank you!
Very good video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for sharing this information, sad to say my Doctor says there is no help for my condition, you gave me hope much appreciated Thanks
Informative & tranquilizing
This was done 5 yrs ago. Now in 2023 I'd like the doctor's response to using blood/plasma containing evidence of covid vax.

THANK YOU,,,VERY INFORMATIVE AND SO HELPFUL. I THOUGHT ALL MY ACHES AND PAINS WERE PSYCHOSOMATIC...THEY ARE REAL!
I just had a nurse chew me out yesterday because I had not gotten a port for mine. So that’s curious
