 He wants me  to take a Parkinsons  medication b/c he said it will help with my horrible "restless" legs  at night.

I'm tired, sick of being off balance and my

 Is there some good scientific literature on this that I  can bring for him to read?

Thanks so much for your  help again.

Dr Khan : Cidp CAN CAUSE RESTLESS LEG AND this proves RLS is really autoimmune. It is better to use anti inflammatory drugs as compared to anti parkinsons in such condition.

Answer is YES  & IVIg is the treatment Note ( he finally got the treatment and has been doing well)

Kevin Got IVIg finally after a diagnosis of CVID AND small fiber CIDP  almost 10 years after his diagnosis and all these neurologist he saw at top University Hospitals .............................. incompetence
