Fatherof3boys,
My daughter's name is Hailey. You can read about our journey with Ulcerative colitis and selective IgM deficiency and IVIG use under Haileysletter.
I found an Immunologist for her; he does treatment of IVIG infusions on patient that have ulcerative colitis.
Here is his information :

He has seen improvement with UC with high dose IVIG infusions. Everyone responds differently. Such as my daughters case. She is selective IgM deficient, therefore the IVIG infusions did not improve her colitis, since it will not replace Igm , only IgG antibodies. In your son case I would definitely try the IVIG fusions, he may respond wonderfully.
Good luck to you, and hopefully your doctor is willing to try the infusions for your son, it would benefit him due to his IgG defienciency.
