Guest guest Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 , first of it sounds like you may suffer from Lyme Disease. In quite a few cases Lyme is misdxd as MS. Also, who ever is doing your spinal tab IT IS A LIE THAT THEY WILL FIND BORRELIA ONLY THAT WAY!!!! It is actually the least likly place to find the spirochete there! This bacteria shows in only 12% in patients in the spinal fluid! Please check out websites like jenna's lyme blog, turn the corner foundation. Also, Lyme like MS is a clinical dx, even the CDC points this out, so a neg blood test or neg spinal tab should not be the reason for a dx but rather the patients history. My husband also got worse after having seizures from Avonex and then a course of iv solumedrol! He went down hill to not being able to walk, speak correctly, his dexterity went down hill, and some severe ataxia issues. After 10 months of treatmetn with abx (only a few days of every month), oxygene, physical therpay et al, he is finally getting up hill again, still he has a long way ahead of him though! Just saying, your case doesn't sound like " typical " MS in my opinion, when you go to your doc again be prepared and informed about tests, Lyme vs MS (and of course you missing the #1 symptom for MS which actually gives this disease it's name lesions!). In my husbands case it was different yet again, he had 26 lesions after two road side bombs but no MS symptoms he had then concussion symptoms, and flu like issues, vomitting, rashes, headaches BUT the lesions were just to inviting for ignorant neuros and call it atypical MS. Conventional MDs don't have all the answers, probably the least amount of answers anyway, and that medicine made my man worse much worse. Sorry, I sound bitter and I don't mena to but it angers me to pieces when I hear that these people called physicians honestly try to make us believe they know it all - THEY DO NOT! They need to get of there behinds and start realizing what they all don't know..... Good luck , keep us posted!!!!

So I have gone only worse after 4 grams of Solumedrol. Hypersensitivity and paresthesis of whole body from chest down, still able to walk though. Soft motorics of hands going worse. Belly twitching, not able to feel hunger or full stomach, difficulties urinate and with bowels. Even pain coming at night, severe insomnia from steroids. I tried to be positive but now I am beginning to feel lost. Brain MRI showed no lesions. Spinal one I am gonna have in 1 month. If I don't get better, they'll put cyclofosfamide into me on friday, used to treate cancer. Doctor said it might be from borelia I had some issues with this summer, but the olny was how to find out is lumbar puncture, which I fear like hell, I suffered greatly the last one.
