I have had Optic Neuritis (ON) about ten times since the originaldiagnosis , when I had it the first time. Each time it responded totally and completely to high dose Cortico-Steroids, I.V . Then,as I got older I never had it again; instead I had vertigo, numbness,but never a repeat of ON. I attribute my good vision today to the factthat the ON was treated promptly and successfully.But that is just my take on it all.Take good care of you, Sharon!Love to you all,nTo: Group <mserslife >Sent: Sun, September 12, 2010 4:12:17 PMSubject: update time (Sharon)

I am still feeling sorry for myself;). I am in my second flare in 5 months. Now I have been dxed with ON. I guess I can't pretend MS isn't real, can I? lol Beyond that stuff....life does go on. I am still going out to feed and water the chickens/ducks but I only go once a day instead of twice now--in the mornings when I am 'fresher'. My 14 year old granddaughter goes with me and does almost everything. Most of the birds belong to the family but I do have a few of my own. is my fawn and white runner duck and he like to eat scratch from my hand. I got from Freecycle 3 years ago along with his three 'girls' (chickens). Two of his 'girls' died of old age but Margaret is still around. Margaret always

eats from my hand. I also have a khaki campbell duck. I haven't been doing much else except keeping the dishes done. Fun, huh? I take care of the grandkids when mom and dad are gone. I read, work on genealogy and play around on the computer here and there. I don't cook much because my son does nearly all the cooking. hugs to each of you SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

n,

I quite agree with you. Though I've never had an opthamologist agree with either of us. They keep saying it will go away the same way it came.. and I'm like.. BUT these are MY eyes we're talking about.. but if they won't treat.. what does one do?

Sorry about this font if you can't read it.. I'm trying to find one that all of use can read easily, but that doesn't seem to be the easiest of tasks either.

HUGS

I always thought they would treat with solumedrol or oral steroids at least for ON. But my eye doc read part of the results of an ON study saying the outcome is the same if a person is treated or isn't treated. But then he said if the pain got worse or my vision deteriorated then I would need iv solumedrol. So go figure! lol SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.
