It's IV steroids? Right?

I had double vision earlier this summer, had the 3 days of IV steroids and after the big crash a day or so after the last infusion (didnt get the handy dandy nasty tasting oral taper) I started to have improvements in the vision altho the doubles didnt go away right away, just wasnt as horrible, but a bunch of my sensory symptoms cleared up fairly quickly and I enjoyed it while it lasted.

Left half of my body has been numb since the beginning of September, and when I couldnt move the left ring finger I panicked a bit (when I say "a bit", I really mean "A LOT!!". Neuro gave me a bottle of steroids and I did a taper.

Numbness didnt go away, and it got worse in my feet, but at least the pain went away for the most part, and I can move the fingers on that hand a lot easier now.

The increased numbness in my feet did get better, and now I only notice a little bit on the left side. I think the numbness is starting to get better...either that or I'm just getting used to it...(I'd rather it went away...I dont like the constant reminder that I have MS)
