My immune globulin really low; does Beta Glucan work?

My LLMD ordered blood tests, and my IG is really low. It's been low before, and I did a subcutaneous IV. Now, I'm afraid to get blood products (plasma), and my LLMD recommended Beta Glucan. I'm afraid to take that too, because it contains Saccharomyces Cerevisaie, which sometimes gets a bad rap for causing some kind of weird infection. She did say that she uses specially filtered IVs, but she also seemed very confident about the Beta Glucan.

I still get three colds a month, and have had so many infected cuts and abrasions, it's not funny. Now, the colds are being accompanied by intestinal cramps, and I wonder if they're really something else. I've learned to use natural remedies for infected cuts, sinus infections, and bronchitis. Still, I feel desperate from having had so many infections.

A year and a half ago, my thumb was so badly infected, I had to have surgery, bc the surgeon said otherwise, it would have to be amputated.

So, what do you think?

A good beta-glucan product such as Wellmune or one from Transfer Point would be highly purified so it shouldn't cause a problem with the intestines. I wouldn't use any others.

An alternative would be a product I just read about in a health newsletter called REgen pearls. The only ingredient I see is bovine globulin. Here's the website:

I took high doses of Glucan 300 (Transfer Point) for a month and did notice some changes in symptoms, nothing very dramatic though. I'll have to give it another shot now that my thyroid hormones are more optimal.
