Default Annual Relapse?

Guess so! Was nearly a year ago with the ON attack, now this round.

So this is day 2 oral steroids. Been through 5 on IV already. The good news is, not spastic! Apparently I'm just getting bad leg cramps.

I do, however, have some balance stuff going on my left side. Seems to be sensory more than else. Thankfully, neuro knew right away what I meant when I described the leg dropping/buckling feeling.

Still dizzy as heck and oral steroids give me wicked headaches! Overall though, the news, even as a relapse, isn't so bad.
