So frustrated over DMT & symptoms
I have tried to stay positive when possible. My latest frustration..since January I've had numb legs, back pain & slightly burning feeling, brain fog & numbing. I was in the weening off Tysibri stage, only using Copaxone -3x's a week & getting 3 Solumedrol infusions every 4 wks. This for me was a disaster

Migraines
I just got some solumedrol done last night do to migraines. One of my lesions have doubled in size. My doctor doesn't know for sure if the migraines are from my lesion or if I am having a relapse. Getting some more sulomedrol for a couple more days.

How long after a course of steroids do you notice an effect?
So I had a 3 day infusion of Solumedrol. Last dose on Saturday. And today, Wednesday, I'm feeling almost human (I am so grateful whatever the reason, but is this the steroids or just coincidence?) 🙏🌈😊

Having PMR Is Like Dancing With A Gorilla……..
The dance isn’t over until the gorilla decides it’s over. On August 25, 2017, I began a treatment regimen which included weekly injections of depo-medrol that provided me with an average of 11.4 mg per day. Ten months later, I had tapered my daily dose to approximately 3.3 mg and switched over to 4.0

What can I expect at first Rheumy appt?
Hi all! I’m usually on the MS board but it turns out I probably have RA as well. Both my knees puffed up so bad 2 weeks ago I coundn’t even stand, much less walk. I got a steroid shot and some medrol for 5 days. Since then my wrists, ankles, finger and toes have been very painful and sometimes puffy.

New Medicine
I am in Italy and a friend with Crohn's told me about a new medicine called Cortiment 9mg, Budesonide. It is a class of corticosteriods. He says it has very little side effects. Has anyone ever heard of this and could it be used to treat PMR? I am currently on 6 mgs of Medrol and would love to lose all

PolyBursitis Rheumatica & Bacon Sandwiches
Hello everyone, Had my 2 month visit with my Rheumatologist last week. My first question was what exactly happens in the body with PMR? She said PMR is really not a good name for this disorder because the inflammation affects the bursa, the small fluid-filled sacs that cushion joints. Then I asked

GP appointment
How do you get one?!? I can’t ever get past the receptionist. For the 3rd time in 6 wks I’ve had a chest infection that has quickly become nasty. On Tuesday I turned up and tried to demand an appointment and I got a letter from the practice to say my behaviour was inappropriate and won’t be tollerated

I had a Medrol injection early December and it was brilliant. I started hydrochloroquine end of Dec but symptoms started creeping back in during February. 4 days ago I had a 2nd injection, but i don’t feel it has been as successful. My fingers have gone down but first finger isn’t perfect. Toes are now

Skin Problems Associated with PMR/ GCA?
I have a likely diagnosis of PMR/GCA; I also have many red marks, particularly on my lower legs , ankles and feet in various shapes; I have had many small squamous cell carcinomas removed due to a life in the sun until recently; still have a few tiny ones needing attention. I know what they are and how

Major Panic Atasck
Well the short of it. I was about to graduate in 2010 with a degree in Criminal Justice. I had to have acid reflux surgery and afterwards was given too much of the steroid Medrol. At any rate my body freaked out and for the next month I had constant panic attacks until my doctor prescribed me Paxil

Hello
Hi! I am new here. I was diagnosed with behcets last November 2017. I have been taking methylprednisolone since then and now it has been tapered to 8mg medrol once a day. My face is really puffy, though i know it is the side effect of the medicine. I just wonder when it will subside? Or will it ever

Can you go from adrenal fatigue to taking too much adrenal supplements...?
I took Medrol (4 mg daily) for a couple of years, prescribed by hormone doctor for adrenal fatigue...one day, that felt too much, so I ordered Metavive III instead and have been doing great on it. However, in the past couple of weeks, I have been feeling slightly hyperthyroid and wanted to know if anyone
