Now that antibodies have been found in ME patients, and it's plausible such antibodies cause encephalitis, I wonder if anyone have tried first-line therapy against antibody-mediated encephalitis?
It tends to be something like this:
IV solumedrol – 1 gram daily for 3-5 days then a taper over several weeks – in addition to plasmapheresis (or in addition to IVIG).
I've been given solumedrol before, and it gave me a short relief. But it wasn't given several days in succession, and it wasn't given with plasmapheresis following it.
