Brief Answer:
Usually recovery starts with 1 month treatment of IVIg.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.

Usually improvement starts after 3-4 weeks. So you can expect improvement after 1 month of IVIg treatment.
So 7 weeks is considered as long period. So if you are not at all improving then better to consult your doctor and discuss this.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
Thanks.
