I have been on cellcept from 2012. I had IVIG first then I went on cellcept. I have slowly improve from being paralyzed to walking with a walker and can stand erect. Humana with Medicare pays all except $45.00 of a month supply.

Glad to hear the cellcept is working. My doctor wants to continue with the IVIG. Thanks for your response.
