Anyone use Pulse Solumedrol?

Question:

Just wondering if anyone does this on a regular basis.  If so…how often, how much…does it work?  Just wondering if it could be an option, because when I have flare-ups, my body REALLY responds well to steroids. Thanks….Marc

hi marc rather than my usual rant on roids. i’m gonna suggest you get to "healthgate.com" or "greateful med" and do medline searches for corticosteroids AND "learning disability" corticosteroids AND hippocampus corticosteroids AND axon AND "cell death" corticosteroids AND PTSD corticosteroids AND "multiple-sclerosis" AND outcome corticosteroids AND amigdala corticosteroids AND depression corticosteroids AND infection corticosteroids AND mood just a fun way to spend an afternoon. preferrably BEFORE going to a neuro about "steroids". cheers ed kbraith…@aol.com (KBraithwai) writes: >Just wondering if anyone does this on a regular basis.  If so…how often, how >much…does it work?  Just wondering if it could be an option, because when I >have flare-ups, my body REALLY responds well to steroids. >Thanks….Marc

After  a  posssible  allergic  reaction to  Betaseron,    it  DID   stabilize my  downslide,  and  now I  am  back  on Beta   with  Imuran,   wish  i  never did  the   pusle  therspy,   it  did  make  me  feel  well   for a  time   BUT steroids  gave me  weak  bones  and a  steroid related  CATARACt  at the  age of  44. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text –
