Guest guest Posted June 22, 2000 Report Share Posted June 22, 2000 Wow! Its amazing how much Ive learned on this site. Thank you to everyone for sharing. I have a question for everyone. was tested three years ago with the pneumovax vaccine twice with no response, thus the diagnosis Selective Antibody Deficiency. His blood work came back and all igs were fine just didn't produce antibodies. Before IVIG had 6 surgeries in two years. 5 sinus due to 100% blockage in frontals and maxil. Also had septic hip from sinus infection had to open up and clean the hip bone. Once on IVIG he would still get sinus infection but not complete blockage, we could control them now. He was getting Gammagaurd until recently when he had two reactions whe was switched to Gammune N. He has had three IVIG of Gammune N with predisone before and we have not had any problems. almost always has a nose full of " snot " but at least its coming out He is currently on Ceftin. I guess my question to the group is anyone else out there have a child whos IG levels are normal but doesn't produce the antibodies? Thanks again for all that you have taught me. I only wish I would of known about this site at the beggining. le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
