let us know what's up, okay? Worried about you...

Aww thanks Debbie,

I'm home now, I have to do 5 more days on iv steroids but they want me to call the ms clinic tomorrow morning asap.. maybe they can get me in sooner.

Thanks everyone for keeping my spirits up
You all truly understand what it's like..

Cindy

MHM- this is great news and some progress. 5 days of steroids, Ok, that's doable. Did they due anything for the spasms?

Get some rest,

I haven't seen any change in the spasticity yet, but i'm SO glad the ER doc was there to witness it..he said that I was having a MS attack and was shocked that i haven't been diagnosed yet and wanted to know what their reluctance to diagnose was? Told him clear MRI 3yrs ago..

Could not have asked for a better or nicer doctor..he contacted my neuro at the ms clinic and was instructed to give me steroids.. so happy I wasn't brushed off.

So glad i went because now it's documented..the neuro has my report so fingers crossed i will be in sooner than later.
Do they typically give steroids for an MS flare? I was surprised that they didn't just give a script and sent me home..or was I really just have a bad relapse? I know I was just wondering is all ..
