Looking forward to it - thanks for the reminder!

I will be attending all three days. If someone has a question they would like me to pose to the experts on the "Ask the Experts" forum, I will try. For example I will be asking about the role of IVIG in treatment and how often is indicated.

I cannot ask about specific patients or cases, but a general question for info I would be glad to try to ask and report back.

I second the IVIG questions!! Dosage? (We are using 1.5g/kg)

Where are they at in differentiating neuro-lyme and an auto immunity (PITAND) reaction with TBI?

Orion-

I bet Nicholson's presentaion is the same that is posted on his website. Just go to his site - http://www.immed.org/ and look at "recent videos" and "NT Factor". You might be able to search NT factor on you tube or "lipid replacement".
