"I am 63 and have had MS since 1992. Started with numbness from neck down for 2 years... then optic neuritis in 97 where I first discovered Methylprednisolone and how it saved my eyesight. After that tried interferon (paid $18,000 per year) nope... Failed... I have been through numerous relapses from dizziness confusion (the worst if you ask me), optic neuritis twice, astigmatism 6 months... I couldn’t walk more than a few times (and I know I have it easy compared to some) but there are only 2 things I feel that have helped me... One is diet ( Dr. Gregor) and the other is Methylprednisolone... There is soooo much more to this story... Especially my screwups... If I just got this disease and know what I have learned I would read or watch Dr Gregor info on Dr Swank 5-7 minute video... And use methylprednisolone only when I really had to... It’s not perfect but will help you while you do the research and figure this out... Here is wishing you the best..."

Solu-Medrol (methylprednisolone) "A very effective drug for stopping MS relapses. I have had about 7 courses of treatment (over approximately 20 years) consisting of infusion of 1 gram per day of solumedrol for 3 consecutive days. Pretty brutal side effects: immediate metallic taste in mouth after commencing infusion; persistent agitation or feeling wired; difficulty sleeping; spikes blood sugar. All side effects disappear shortly after conclusion of infusion therapy."
