Hi
Today I was watching the Doctor/hospital TV show "House." The "patient" had a diagnosis of ALS, but Dr. House did not think that was the correct DX. He started the patient on IVIG to "see if he had multifocal motor neuropathy." It is the first time I have ever seen IVIG and MMN mentioned anywhere except on specific forums or looking it up. It is never mentioned anywhere so I thought that was pretty neat. I am sure that sounds pathetic but I was somehow pleased anyway. Have a great week. Peg
ps. The patient did not have ALS or MMN and was cured anyway. Ain't TV great!:razz:
