Not just aches and pains
I've had RRMS since 2013. Seen my share of ups, downs and in betweens. Now I've been experiencing pain and weakness in both arms. Started out as weakness with an MS flare I had back in December that also effected my speech. Now it's back with a vengeance! Was on methylprednisolone and it only helped a tiny bit and only for a little bit. Has anyone else ever dealt with similar symptoms! I feel so confused as to why this is happening! Going for 3 day IV prednisone treatment starting Monday. Hoping it helps alleviate this pain! Please chime in if you've had similar experience. Thank you for hearing me! Much Respect!
@theresa_leal , I've had Steroids a few times, specifically for muscle weakness. They are normally prescribed to bring a relapse to a swifter conclusion, rather than let it take its course. It is a medium term solution, as Steroids help your body to recover over the following 6-8 weeks. Steroids can also have adverse effects on your body too, which is why they should be restricted to twice a year.
