That's great Judy Really glad you have some movement back!

I think it was me who asked about the Decadron. I was curious about it since I am now highly allergic to IVSM, which is what I have always used. At the time I became allergic, it was like losing a best friend b/c I did not know there were other things to help.

I was able to get the ACTH treatment. Can't quite remember, but the se's may have been worse as far as HUNGER, lol and weight gain and hyperness! It definately helped though

What I am curious about is what the Decadron is, does? (like ACTH is a hormone that makes your brain produce it's own steroid? or something like that, lol.) Is it given the same way as IVSM? You don't HAVE to do a taper? Can do at home?

Thanks, and again, so glad you got some back I also believe I am now SPMS I guess it makes you appreciate ANY improvement .
