Guest guest Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Well, this hasn't happened in several years but I went to my neurologist this afternoon to get the results of my annual MRI and the news was awful. Apparently my MRI with contrast lit up like a Christmas tree and I've got new damage in numerous parts of my brain. So I've got to have 5 days of solu-medral drip. This sucks, solu-medrol makes me so sick. I almost would prefer to stay in the relapse! This is what I get for skipping my Copaxone shot for months at a time. Incredibly, I'm one of the 38% of people the stinking shot actually helps. That's baffling considering my usual awful odds. So I'm a little angry at myself over this because next week is going to be in and out of the hospital getting my veins pumped full of hell in a bag. Just had to vent. So my advice to those with RRMS, seriously, no matter what you read on statistics about any medicine you're on, don't skip it. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Oh Hun I am so sorry. I hope the solu-medrol helps and doesn't make you sick. Isn't there anything else they can do but that?   ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php -- In a Bad Bad BAD Relapse Well, this hasn't happened in several years but I went to my neurologist this afternoon to get the results of my annual MRI and the news was awful.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 Oh Amy! I am so sorry to hear this news from you. This is a lousy way for you to learn your 'lesson' about not skipping your shots! I'll be thinking about you.hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.
