What Is CIDP or Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy?

Polineuropatia Desmielinizante Inflamatoria Cronica en Español

CIDP or Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy, is when the body's immune system slowly attacks the peripheral nerves causing weakness or paralysis of the legs and the arms. CIDP is a form of autoimmune disease. What happens is the body's defenses attack and strip away the covering the protects the nerves, which is called the myelin sheath. In later stages of the disease the immune system breaks through the myelin covering and attacks the nerves themselves. The disease is related to Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), and Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (AIDP) but in the case of CIDP the effects come on more slowly and are chronic or long lasting. CIDP is also called Chronic Relapsing Polyneuropathy when patients seem to stabilize and recover, then experience a return of the symptoms later on.

What are the Symptoms of CIDP?

The most common symptoms include fatigue, loss of reflexes, tingling in the arms and legs, numbness, aching pain in the muscles, weakness and paralysis. These symptoms typically come on slowly and progress for a long period of time. Patients are usually treated for CIDP with repeated courses of either an intravenous immunoglobulin or plasma exchange. Early treatment is the key to long term recovery of CIDP.

Can CIDP Be Triggered by an Immunization or Vaccine Shot?

Yes. Maglio Christopher & Toale, P.A. has represented patients with CIDP and GBS triggered by the seasonal influenza vaccine; the flu shot; the diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus shot, or DTaP immunization; the hepatitis-B vaccine; and the measles, mumps and rubella immunization (MMR vaccine). Another vaccine that may trigger CIDP is the polio immunization.

What To Do If You Contracted CIDP After a Vaccination

Contact a lawyer who is experienced in representing cases before the federal vaccine court because filing a claim in the vaccine program is complicated . There are no legal costs for a patient to hire a vaccine lawyer because the federal program pays all of the lawyer's fees. You never have to share a portion of your compensation with an attorney.

The vaccine law team at Maglio Christopher & Toale has helped clients recover multi-million dollar settlements for their vaccine reactions.

Is There Compensation for Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) Triggered by a Vaccine Reaction?

Yes. Maglio Christopher & Toale, P.A. has represented many CIDP and Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) patients in the federal vaccine court, winning financial compensation for CIDP and GBS patients. Involved vaccines include the flu vaccine, Gardasil vaccine, Menactra vaccine, Measles Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine, and Hepatitis B vaccine.
