So, starting back in September I believe it was, I went into my 2nd ever flare... before Xmas I was put on IVSM and needless to say... 3 days after they were done I felt like my old self again! One whole month I got feeling normal.. no numb legs, no dizziness, no vertigo, I was able to walk more than 15 feet without painful leg cramps, etc. Now... as of about 4 weeks ago, all those symptoms are back... is it possible that the steroids masked my symptoms for awhile? Or do you think I am going into yet another freakin flare? I go to the neuro tomorrow.. and for once am anxious to get there cuz this is getting old... Any suggestions or stories would be appreciated. Thanks to all in advance!!!

My dear Sweet Marissa..

Here I was wondering how you were these daze!! Sorry you are struggling.

Yes sounds like another flare, but others will come along and help you even more. Just wanted to say hello and tell you that it WILL get better, and glad to hear from you, hang in there sweetie!!!

I thought the purpose of IVSM was to make the symptoms better. Am I wrong here? I'm glad that at least you got a good month of feeling "normal" out the IVSM.

You sound like you're going into a new flare and great that you're going to see you neuro on Thursday. I guess you could think of that as good timing.

Let us know how things go with the neuro. We're all concerned for you and want you to feel better.
