Thanks, gibble, whyrwehere, Melody, and Sarah,
My sentiments as well! Still early on in the prot. for me, so I have not lost heart-am in it for the long haul.
I have so far resisted steroids--never touch the stuff--do not want to start now-might mess things up.
I am looking for a new neuro, but taking my time...i am hoping to be like you, Sarah, and "not feel the need". Hoping and praying for that!
My present neuro is [near retirement] director of an ms research clinic in town. Pretty crusty. You know the type, out of the office so much that he doesn't even have an office admin manning the phone, anymore. If I made an appt today, it'd be months b/4 I'd get in[as if I'd want to--LOL! ]
btw, it is so true about the stress. It was almost as if he enjoyed telling me that I was worse--[very gradually declining over the past 4 yrs]
didn't seem to hear me telling him I felt improved.
oh well, who needs it? HMMM?
Anyway, i feel better about my decision to skip the steroids for now.
