So I know this is supposed to help with episodes that are unresponsive to steroids.
I had my first attack starting about a month ago, and after my brain MRI and a lot of other tests was diagnosed with MS.
Some symptoms haven't gone away even after two rounds of dexmethasone and one round of Solu-Medrol. My neuro had mentioned before that he might try plasmapheresis if the third round didn't work.
I know they say it's more effective if given in the first 20 days. Has anyone had it after 20 days and still gotten relief from it?
Right now the tremor in my leg makes it really hard to walk most of the day, and I have limited use of one hand, so I'm pretty desperate to get the symptoms under control.
