My ON started last Friday when I thought my glasses where scratched or somwething was just not right and then last night I noticed while riding in the car that the tail lights were all white and not red and then they would go blank and I could not see them.
Long story short I saw my opthomalogist today and he had photos taken of my optic nerve. I have ON and he wants 250 mgs of IV steroids for 4 days. The nurse is coming tomorrow and I am supposed to do it every 6 hours!!
Any advice would be appreciated. I have had steroids before but not this high. I just pray my vision comes back. I am 50 and the choice to do the steroids was in the grey area but the doc thought it would be the best.
Oh course my neuro could not be contacted. My optho will call again tomorrow and give him the run down.
Thanks for any help!!!
