What is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP)?
CIDP (chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy Chronic) is a rare disease of the peripheral nerve by gradually increasing weakness of the legs and to a lesser extent, the arms. There is damage to the lining of the nerves were called trigger myelin. You can begin at any age and in both sexes. The weakness comes in two or more months. PRI features which contribute to the diagnosis, as described below.
-------------------------------------- ...
PDIC What determines it?
CIDP patient has difficulty walking, worsening gradually over several months. Tingling and other sensations can be experienced when the myelin is damaged sensory nerves of the patient. The study shows usually a loss of reflexes such as knee-jerk and ankle. The evaluation of a neurologist, who often also electrical tests, the test of nerve electromyography. It shows the slow line of electrical signals oreven blocked conduction. A lumbar puncture for analysis of cerebrospinal fluid usually shows elevated protein with normal cells will help to confirm the diagnosis. Patients with variants of CIDP, multifocal motor neuropathy, and a slowing of conduction in some motor nerves show the muscles. Your doctor may obtain blood and urine tests, including analysis of proteins in order to investigate the causes of the PDIC.
-------------------------------------- ...
PDIC How is it treated?
Various treatment options are available. Prednisone are similar to the anti-inflammatory corticosteroids are generally used under the supervision of the Agency as the initial therapy for several reasons. Often, the strength, you might want to taken orally and is inexpensive. Side effects that limit its use in May. Two other methods have often proved useful. High-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), blood proteins of the protection obtained from healthy subjects, can easily be determined by an arm vein. In a different treatment than plasmapheresis (PE), or plasma, some of the patient's blood is removed and the blood cells without the liquid part of blood plasma of the patient's body. You can remove the harmful antibodies in the plasma. Treatment of CIDP is something of an art. If a patient shows a good improvement in the first treatment, but again developed weakness may be repeated, or other therapies can be tried.

What are the causes of PRI?
The current theory is that the immune system protects the myelin that normally recognizes as foreign and attacks. Exactly what starts this process is not transparent. Some patients have found that the abnormal proteins in the blood, and this may facilitate damage.
