July 26

This has not been a good week for Mom she is feeling very hopeless and helpless. The doctor did the nerve conduction study on her July 25. Well, the outcome was not what we were looking for........ She has something called Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP). It is a chronic type of GBS. The doctor told her she wasn't getting in better so they started her on steriods to see if that will help. If this doesn't work than immunosuppressive Drugs. This disease is even more rare than GBS. Its onset can be slow and subtle. It can go in remission and can also relapse. Please keep praying for my mom and family!!
Love, Jodi
