It can cause limb weakness or even paralysis and respiratory failure if left untreated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Things you do every day, like picking up this phone, or buttoning buttons, tying shoelaces, putting on deodorant, just can&#8217;t do it,&#8221; Rosenbaum said at the time. &#8220;Picking up my kids, can&#8217;t do it. Wiping your ass, maybe TMI, but might have Ashley assist on the next one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After his diagnosis, Rosenbaum was infused with&nbsp;IVIG, or intravenous immunoglobulin, a human blood product&nbsp;made up of antibodies.&nbsp;The often costly infusions&nbsp;has become the gold standard for treating&nbsp;a variety of immunodeficiency disorders. He later suffered headaches, a common side effect from the treatment, especially if&nbsp;the product is&nbsp;infused too quickly. However, he was able to walk,&nbsp;but carefully.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I still can&#8217;t hold myself up, I still can&#8217;t hold my kids,&#8221; Rosenbaum said on his Instagram Stories on Wednesday evening. &#8220;I still can&#8217;t manipulate things in my hands, I can&#8217;t open a bottle, I can&#8217;t turn a key. There&#8217;s lots I can&#8217;t do. but there&#8217;s still lots I can do. Tomorrow is my first appointment with my neurologist and we&#8217;ll see what he says with regards to next steps.
