Just ended day 3 of Solumedrol
I hated to do it, but I've spent the last 3 days getting IV steroids from Home Health Care. The exacerbation hadn't gotten too bad yet, but it was spreading and the neuro wanted to nit it in the bud. The worst part of the steroids for me is the sleep disturbance. I've been up and down at night, sleeping

Loss of sight scare
Hi Everyone, Hope all are well, coping, with these inflammatory conditions. I am just home from a NYC Hospital w an event that was truly frightening. And again it concerned doctors, claiming to be "experts" in GCA, and not knowing what the h--- they were doing. After 2 bouts of penicillin, I walked

CT3M
I know members here have used the CT3M method successfully, and I'd love to hear about your experiences. I managed to wean myself off Medrol (prescribed for adrenal fatigue in late 2011) about a year ago. HC never worked for me as it metabolised too quickly. I was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue based

should cortisone always be combined with DHEA?
The Hertoghe doctors say you need to take DHEA with hydrocortisone or Medrol (unless you also suffer from PCOS). The reason is that DHEA will prevent cortisone from "eating up" too much tissue. Therefore, you are handed a prescription for DHEA along with your prescription for cortisone. Last year, my

synthetic corticosteroid
Solumedrol IV treatment- people are willing to use a synthetic corticosteroid when turmeric or frankincense oil or extreme high doses of Vitamin D3 can help, curious as to the why's?

Acupoints Massage Therapy For PPMS
For years I tried to reach out for PPMS patients like me. Since 1995, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and IBS. In year 2000, I was confirmed with Spinal Cord MS. Injections and oral medications (except Elavil) did not slow down my progression. In 2011, I was in the hospital and came home in wheelchair

Solumedrol
I'm on to second of five Solumedrol iv treatment. I'm a paraplegic fighting to save my upper body. Right side ok but left is numb, tingling and plain dumb sometimes.

Depo provera and mood swings
I've been on depo for a bit over a year and only now have I noticed I get extreme bipolar-like mood swings right before I'm due for my next shot (I'm talking less than a week before my next depo shot). I'll go from depressed to okay to happy to angry and finally uncontrollable crying. Then I'm back to

adrenal support after weaning off Medrol
I recently order this product after weaning off Medrol (4 mg daily) which I took for almost five years for adrenal fatigue: https://www.pureformulas.com/pure-adrenal-400-60-capsules-by-professional-formulas.html The reason I ordered this supplement was 1. I don't feel optimal yet (tend to feel tired

This will get the star for brainfog for sure.
If it wasn't true, it might even be funny. 😏 But when I share these things it helps me realize they are not as desperate as it feels. As you know, I've been on the steroids for about 14 mos. I take methylprednilosone which is not prednisone proper, but it is medrol, or solumedrol.... same kind of side

how to know if I'm estrogen dominant or deficient...?
This is not directly thyroid-related but I hope it's OK to post this question here anyway, hoping that someone will know more about this: I have been asking myself a lot of questions lately about estrogen deficiency vs dominance. The symptoms seems confusingly similar in many cases....five years ago,

I take a shot once a month of

New here: Feeling like I am out of options
For years I was not taken seriously by any doctors, the whole "its just your period, you have to just deal with it" thing. My periods would be so sever that I would vomit and black out from pain.You could see my muscles cramping through my skin so badly, I halfway expected an alien to burst out.

Length of relapse
I'm starting to get a little concerned about the relapse that I am currently having. Although I have seen slight improvement, and most of my energy has returned, I'm still not back to my "normal". It has been close to a month when my symptoms first started, and two weeks since I've been off solumedrol

Depo-Medrone
Does anyone else have 3 monthly Depo-Medrone IM? If so, how long have you had them for and what noticeable side effects do you have? I'm due for another on Tuesday and my whole body is screaming PAIN! I was the same before the last two and the DM jab takes effect within 24 hours. Happy New Year.
