This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

I'll let Willie "talk to the straw" before I'll intentionally make myself dizzy, have cottonmouth worse than I already do and make me MORE constipated (that's what Detrol does to me)! If you feel you are doing right, challenge the dude. Ask him why it's so important that you take Detrol. If he says for the health of your bladder, don't forget to mention that it was a urologist who has you doing it. The nerve of some of these jerk offs.

I was DEADSET against self-cathing at first, I couldnt imagine it... Then I heard from you and Artifishual, and decided to give it a go when my urologist suggested it. Now I can say, I would 10x rather cath myself than to take the meds, and it is actually keeping my bladder healthier, not streched out and numb all the time!

This is the beauty of the internet, Bubba! So glad you learned about self-cathing from the guys, and REALLY glad you're going to a new neuro starting in April. Also happy to hear it was a virus, not your MS. whew. Information is power, and information from folks who understand what you're going thru can be life-changing power.
best,

Priceless!!!!

Rebif is to slow down the progression of MS as the other therapies are supposed to do i.e. betaseron, avonex, copaxone. It sounds like you may need IV steroid treatment. It sounds like a flare up to me.
