I have been diagnosed with mall fiber neuropathy....the burning has involved feet at times up to thighs, fingers, and face...and autonomic findings

I tend to have what I call 'flares' that can last weeks or longer where symptoms worsen and then calm down again.

Has anyone ever taken prednisone for flares, and has it helped.

Also...with flares my legs will feel 'clumsy' and weak and slow....and I almost get a foot drop on L side (can't dorsiflex foot well)...but when calms down...everything improves (though always a new baseline with slight decrease in function and sensation)

thanks
