All I know is these steroids has me looking like the Stay-Puffed Marshmallow Man (except I’m a woman). I am so swollen that the skin on my face is peeling and my shoes have all shrunk in my closet! So if you have the pleasure of seeing me in Marshmallow mode feel free to bring along the graham crackers and Hershey bars and we'll just make S'mores together.

mmm now I have a craving for s'mores - thanks for that.

I usually look like a big, red, angry tomato My face gets so red and fat and I get really, really mean. Luckily the puffiness should go away relatively quickly after you stop the meds.

I don't have MS but what I have leaves me pretty much inactive and my advice is find the best med that allows you to do as much as possible and try to keep depression at bay if at all possible because it only makes pain worse and takes you to dark places you don't want to go!
Good Luck to you,
Junie

This disease just plain sux . It's so hard to get the meds just right. I've been dx'd for about 1 1\2 yrs and I've been on Copaxone, Avonex, and Tysabri. Right now I'm on no dmd for the time being. I'm so sorry you're having a tough time right now . Everyone here understands so feel free to whine like the rest of us .
