My son of 32 years old has just been recently diagnosed with MS. The Doctor said that the number of lesions in his brain are to many to count. However he does have two large active lesions right now.
The Doctor wants to start him on a five day course of Solumedrol via IV. This will take about two hours each day. My son is very concerned about his work and does not want them to know about his disease. He doesn't know how he is going to get the time off from work to have this done.
I was wondering what would happen if he doesn't get the Solumedrol infusion and also if there is an alternative.
I would greatly appreciate any input on this. Thank you
