Hope it lasts for you too.

Last time I had steroids for something that was not vision related, it didn't work. (usually only take steroids for vision related MS stuff)

The one time I tried steroids for a non-vision thing, it was when my hands went numb in 2012. Movement of my fingers was weird then too. Steroids didn't seem to do a thing for it. My hands are still numb. I created my own PT for it. I crocheted, knitted, and did typing tests on the internet to try to help any movement issues, and keep my hands moving. That seemed to help some.

I did have some cortisone shots in my shoulder last year for the not-MS-related frozen shoulder, and was told that wouldn't do anything for the MS. It did seem to help my energy for awhile, and it helped the pain in the shoulder from the frozen shoulder.

I've been having a lot more issues lately with walking. I'm about to contact my neuro and see if he'll Rx some steroids, or a round of IVSM, or I'm going to switch neuros. Just afraid to switch neuros, because they'll probably want an MRI, and I'm claustrophobic and don't want to crawl into a tube where it'll be uncomfortable, and I'll end up emotionally traumatized from the claustrophobia AND be in pain from not moving.
