I have had IV steroids twice about 4 years ago. Symptoms never went away but it might have stopped a bit of the progression.

Don't stress about it, give it time. If you are on an exacerbation, you need to ride it out. Keep a diary about what is happening to document the symptoms and in a week, call the neurologist for another appointment.

Self diagnosis is not good and doctors do not always handle neurological problems quickly. You are a unique person. MS is not necessarily an easy call for a doctor. Sometimes it needs time.

I am sorry you are going through this. I wish there was a good answer. Ask your doctor for something that may help the symptoms, like neurontin.

My hope is that once you document your symptoms, the doctor will be better able to figure it out.
