    Has anyone had bottles of vigam iv? Peter had three bottles on Wednesday, and last night we were almost afloat in bed he sweated that much. Is this normal?

    Its human immunogloblulin. Peter was having a few infections tummy bugs etc and taking a long time to shake them off.
    We asked if we could go on holiday for or 40th wedding anniversary and the 'man' (consultant) arranged this so we could go away and he not be at risk of infection. I believe its basically a bit of several persons immune system. I think now he is on it it may be a permanent thing. Like zometa. He is otherwise well but worried the hell out of me when I got in the bed and it was soaking worse than it ever was at the outset.
