I AM ALSO ON BENADRYL FOR ALLERGIC REACTION DURING TREAT WHICH DRIP HAS TO BE AT A VERY LOW RATE STARTS AT 50 DRIPS AND THEY EVENTUALY GET THE IVIG UP TO 125 ,TAKES 5 HRS ,I CANT HAVE IT ANY FASTER ,TO MANY ADVERSE SIDE AFFECTS
LATELY I AM ANXIOUS RESTLESS IRRATABLE, HUNGRY AS ALL GET OUT THE FIRST 4 DAYS AFTER TREATMENT I HAVE GAINED 50 LBS I AM DEPRESSED,AND SO WORRIED ABOUT THE HEPERIN RECALL AS WELL ,THEY USE IT DURING MY TREATMENTS TO PREVENT BLOOD CLOTS
SO IS IT LL WORTH IT ,,WELL WHEN I AM SICK I WOULD SAY NO,,BUT I HAVE ABOUT A 10 DAY PERIOD A MONTH WHERE I FEEL REALLY WELL AND I AM STRONGER AND I DONT FALL ALL THE TIME AND MY NEUROPATHY IS NOT CRIPPLING ME, BUT ARE THE SIDE AFFECTS I AM EXSPRIENCING NORMAL , ( OH I TOOK ASPERIN FOR HEADACHE WHICH IS SO BAD AFTER TREATMENT AND WORSE WHEN SOLUMEDROL WEARS OFF ,I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE ,NO ONE TOLD ME THESE DRUGS CAN NOT BE MIXED ,MY VISION PREVENTED ME FROM READING ABOUT IT
ANYWAYS THERE IS MY STORY

I don't know if this is related to recent S-M IV of 1GM/day x 3 days + extended graduated taper off with prednisone.
There is excruciating pain in legs, more left side than right but both. Every atom, waist to toes hurts on maximum volume, in surges and dips of indescribable pain, for hours and hours. Usually back to normal, daily pain level of raw skin with sunburn on waking after so so sleep of 4-5 hours daily.
I have chronic, secondary progressive MS of 14 years. Ambulatory with walker and cane. Also exposed to Agent Orange in heavily sprayed areas of I Corps, Vietnam, 1968-69. I have 100% service connected, permanent and total, combat related PTSD rating.
I am on Methdone and Percocet 3 months, and just started Lorazipam. M&P do not work at prescribed dosages. Yesterday I took 8 10mg Methadone pills and 6-7 5mg Percocet tabs, and it was inadequately bearable, and I barely made it out alive, again.
I'm going to the VA soon to see what they say, but I would greatly appreciate any advice some nice, knowledgable person may take the time to give.
Thank you
