[CIS-PAGID] Peripheral neuropathy in CVID

[Howard Lederman]

I have an adult CVID patient who has developed an idiopathic peripheral neuropathy while on Hizentra.  My first reaction was to think that this was merely a coincidence and not cause and effect.  However, yesterday I received a call about an out-of-town patient who had CVID, had recently been switched from IVIG to Hizentra and then  developed parasthesias.

Do any of you have patients with similar histories?
