Parvo virus

I have PRCA due to parvo virus infection. First thing that you can ask a doctor is to do parvo virus test by PRCA. Then if positive, IVIG is the first treatment. My low hemoglobin=blood transfussion continues since I had it in Nov 2011. I have tried cyclosporin with prednisone for 6 mos. Now, I am taking cyclosphofomide for 2 mos now with prednisone. Doctors will try to use different meds to see what works. I will communicate with you again.
