Hi
I’ve not been on for a while, I was diagnosed with relapsing remitting ms in august 2013 eventually and am in a a horrible relapse at the moment 
Lost feeling and tingling from my ribs down to my feet and both hands with a new one for me that lovely tight band around my chest (ms hug) constantly I’m 11 days in.neuro gave me 500mg methylprednisolone once daily for 5 days which I finished saturday,nothing has changed does anyone know if this is normal? my own gp has started me on gabapentin 300mg and i’m on day 3 of these 1 three times daily today and still no relief.I’m gutted as I start a new job in March and I so want to get better.Last February I had my last relapse and had same symptoms as I have now but without the dreaded hug and it took 6 weeks to recover without steroids as I was undiagnosed then.I’m also on avonex now 7 weeks in so doesnt suppose that will be helping yet? Has anyone any info or experiance of the steroids or gabapentin? Should they have worked by now? thanks in advance sorry for typing errors hands are a bit numb!
