new treatment

My neurologist has let me know that I have an “aggressive and advanced” MS based on my age (28) and time since diagnosis. (7 months) Steroids were the only treatment to make a difference for me although short term. Next for me is a try with a methylprednisolone 5day infusion. Will be my 3rd treatment hoping for a little relief soon.

Praying for you my friend, getting an infusion myself once the red tape insurance drama is over! We’ll pray for each other and better days 💐❤️🌹NeeC

Please be careful as to many steroids can make your bones brittle, causing breaks. Good luck with your treatment.

Very good advice, something they often do not even bother to tell you is a risk 🙁
