Be careful, because dysarthria's evil twin, dysphagia, often likes to play too, and that combo can really wreak havoc on your life.

+1 I've had both for a while and still having problems with speech especially when I talk for prolonged periods or when eating it gets more problematic, also gets worse by evening, I'm getting IViG every 3 weeks which really helps me with my symptoms.
As for Predisone please try to wean off ASAP I was on for a little over a year and made me feel like a train ran over me, all kinds of inexplicable symptoms...I'm now on Mestinon 120mg every 3h 5 times a day + 180 SR at bedtime + 200mg Imuran/daily + IViG every 3 weeks and have been able to keep things under control.
