Hey there,
I am new to this site as well as this whole MS thing. Though I have not been formally diagnosed with MS, I have been going through a battery of tests to figure out what is going on with me.
In July 2013 I started to get blurry vision in my right eye. A month later pain started on and off. In September 2013 I had an MRI which showed a slight signal change in my right optic nerve.
October 2013 I saw a neurologist who specializes in MS. He diagnosed me with atypical optic neuritis, sent me to an opto neurologist, set me up for a load of tests and started me on a 4 day IV solu-medrol with a prednisone taper.
Questions:
1. Is it a normal to feel jittery? This is the worst in the morning.
2. My eye with the ON seems blurrier than it has been in the last 3 months. Can it get worse before it gets better?
3. As the taper goes on, will I begin to feel more like myself?
Any help with these questions would be great. It is hard to feel this way and have no one around me understand it!
Thanks
