IVIG for MDS

This is my first post so I'm not really sure if I'm doing this right. I had a question about IVIG. I have MDS currently in wait and watch situation after being treated for VSAA. My platelets and other counts are all over the place, drastically changing constantly. I have not needed transfusions for a few years. I was wondering if IVIG could be an option for me right now to boost my counts temporarily. Is this something that can be done? I have had IVIG before but not in this situation.
