wornoutmom Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Interesting! This is the first time we have used Tylenol in YEARS, but for us only because I know it is hard on the liver and figured the ibuprofen has the anti-inflammatory effects and really works better. Yes, we are through the worst of it I think. We've seen some of the "turning back the pages" but nothing too severe yet - mostly he is just drained... My husband gave him a funny analogy yesterday. He said "Your brain is like a dirty toilet bowl. The Biaxin helped clean it out a bit the last few months, but the IVIG is like a super strength cleaner, and now the really hard to reach crud is breaking off in chunks while the cleaner works, so your having these "moments". Finally, an explanation my son related too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you just have to go with what works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
