Default Exacerbation over one month now

Hello all. I've had an exacerbation for over one month now. I cannot walk at all, I can't raise either knee, I feel like I'm going down and my legs are getting weaker and weaker. I've tried oral and IV antibiotics to kill whatever infection was going on in my body, I took oral prednisone (500 mg per day for 3 days) and I just started solumedrol infusion today and will do that for 3 days. It used to work phenomenally but toward the end it makes me feel worse and I become much more weak. My whole body is numb up to my stomach. I am able to work because my patients are brought to my office so I'm thankful for that. My mother in law passed away in a head on car accident about a week before Christmas and it was very stressful with my father in law, and my wife with 7 of her siblings really have a hard time with this tragedy. I have not been sleeping well. Ok, enough complaining. Things will get better, that is my plan ok?
