I don't want it again.
I believe that it helped:
-Sensation in my fingertips was partially numb and went back to normal
-Weird paresthesias like bug crawling went away
However, these were both mild problems. I believe that Solu-Medrol caused:
-Water retention
-Joint pain in my knees
-Stiff joints in my fingers, elbows, and knees
-Extremely reduced urine output for three days
-Possibly high blood sugar
-Acne on my chest, back, neck, face, and scalp
-Irritability
-Blurred vision
-Urinary tract infection
-Reduced cognitive function and increased fatigue due to the lack of sleep caused by frequent urination caused by either water retention or high blood sugar
It possibly caused:
-Mood swings (might have been just the grieving process)
-Burning feeling in my feet (or MS worsening?)
Yeah, so I'm thinking the cost/benefit ratio is poor.
