Hi Healthgirl,

How are you doing, have you tried the steroid infusion to see if it is inflammatory based neuropathy?

No, I was only offered the (oral) medrol dose pack which is a high start taper down method of steroids. On the third day I was up for a straight 72 hrs shaky with a burning stomach so they told me to go off.
I asked my neuro if we could try it out again since that was 9 months ago and he still wants to wait.
