Hi all,
Does anyone know if it's okay to combine BVT with IG infusions (not at the same time) ?
I wonder if the IG could contain allergens to BVT?
Has anyone had success with this? Or know of anyone who has tried the two in combination?

For those on IgG -- my immunologist is on board with BVT.
I've been doing BVT for several weks -- it does not seem to affect the IgG treatments , though I do not treat both on the same day.
