This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

My husband had low dose cytoxan a week and a half ago. Every eight hours with steroids. He has SPMS. He was in the hospital for 3 days. He did well the day after he came home. Then it went downhill. Weakness - lots of weakness. Plus his trigeminal neuralgia came back. I ave been home with him the past week and will take the next week also. Does anyone know ha long it will take to Regina strength? Thanks. Marlene

Hi Marlene, you might want to also post your question to the general forum because people who have experienced low dose cyclo would be more likely to notice it there.

Is there much difference between MS cytoxan therapy and the cytoxan therapy they give for breast cancer? I took cytoxan with adriamycin (and steroids) for every two weeks for eight weeks as the first part of my chemo for breast cancer. I noticed my MS symptoms worsening. Saw a neuro recently and was shocked to find out that cytoxan was considered therapeutic for MS.
