    Tecfidera and Iv steroids

    I am currently in a flare right now after being in a lower dose of Tec. for a few months to get adjusted to the side effects and my Dr wants me to do a round of steroids. My question is has anyone taking Tec had a round of steroids, and if so did you have any different side effects. And did it help your symptoms.

      steroids

      I have taken steriods twice while on Tec and they haven't helped me at all. It is not the same as it was before with the steroids, they use to make me feel better after a couple days, but now I don't get any help from them while I have been on Tecfidera. [/FONT]

        had 3 flares since starting Tec, last one a month ago and the worst one yet. I feel Tec has not done me any good and
        will ask my doc for another.

          Steroids haven't helped

          I have gotten no help at all from steroids, see neuro next week and she wants me to take Tysabri, I am not sure about that. I was on Beta Seron and doing fine and then she decided to change to Tec and 6 months I have all this trouble.
