Anybody knowledgable on relapse protocol
Hi
When you are having a relapse what do you do?
Do you have to see a neurologist to be prescribed steroids ?
How long does it take for you to get the steroids ?
Thanks
Rachael

@rachaellouise , contact your MS Nurse. If they feel that it is a relapse requiring Steroids, then they will liaise with your Neuro to arrange the Steroids.
Your GP can prescribe you steroids however check with your MS nurse first, I got steroids directly from the GP when I thought I was having a relapse but then got told off by my MS nurse because it was too close to my last dose of steroids (they stay in your system for quite some time and you shouldn't take them too often)
