I have MS and FINALLY tried the Solu-Medrol. 3 days infusion and then once a month for the next 5 months. I have been on it for 3 months. The pain in my joints goes away almost completely, though it comes back sooner now than at first. It feels great not to hurt. The metallic taste and bloating is worth it. The first several years after being diagnosed, I would not take it. Now I can hardly wait for my next infusion. I also take Betaseron injections every other day.

Have you noticed feeling more stiff and having more difficulty walking for a few days following the infusion? I just finished a 3 day course and am having more problems on day 5. I am hoping its just a result of bloating and will resolve in a day or two. Its been a few years since my last infusion. Do you notice improvements from the IV treatment right away or does it take a few days? Thanks, R
