Pink, be careful mixing steroids with Ty. My neuro is under the impression that steroids increase your chances of getting PML while on Ty. I have heard different from other sources, but she heads up the studies being done at the main college here and that was one of them.

And yes, it is true steroids have not been proven to do anything as far as stopping the attack. They simply cut down the inflammation that usually takes place around the active lesions, giving some relief to the symptoms. For some reason, I don't seem to have inflammation with mine so the steroids do nothing but make me sick.
