Yes, I get this infusion every 3 months, 1G/day for 3 days. It's prednisone. For me, I get a bit sick after the fourth day, but my neuro says that that is not the norm - just me. After that I feel pretty good, stronger.

Anyone what to tell him their experience with Solu-Medrol? Jenna [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ok u might forward this to group. I have no forward ability on blackberry. They are treating me with IV methyprnisolone (solu-medrol) and added tergetal for the facial pain. Could someone look up, explain or add personal experiences from the methyprnisolone.

The facial nerves are inflamed but the brain stem is ok. Theyu don't knw the cause but believe it is an ear infection that attacked the nervous system. But it isn't a nuro problem per say. The steriods seem to be working. They also have a better ENT going to look at me. They say that I will probably have to have surgery on inner ear. But that is left up to the ENT.

They did some evoke potential tests where they electricute ur hands and ankles. I had another mri. They did some visual and auditory tests.
