IVIG and Neupogen

I had my first shot of IVIF on Dec 8. My head is heavy til today. I will have my second shot of IVIG two days before embryo transfer. I am quite scared. After the Lymphocyte immunization therapy and IVIGs, I feel I will cry more if it fails.

The hemotologist said he will use 4 shots Neupogen on me. He explained it promotes the development of the placenta. Growth factor for tropoblast.

Google, google... Whew! I thought neupogen is a TNF-a inhibitor! He said he doesn't want to use tnf-a on me because it sometimes rebounds. Neupogen promotes white blood cell production etc... etc... Ehem! Good Luck Shel! Never mind... I trust!
