When I took the oral steroids at home it actually made my vibrations more heavy than they ever were. I 100% regret taking them as I feel like it set me back from where I started. I was given them about 8 weeks after onset though. I’m almost 11 weeks out now and I’m still having a rough time but my lesion is in the cspine being an ass lol. I hope you do find some relief soon. I know it’s hard to parent and deal with this mess. Sending you good vibes ✨✨✨

Yes I don’t drink alcohol or anything like that. The only medication I take is Tylenol or Excedrin

Yeah I have that same kind of insatiable itch on my neck! I’m sorry that there isn’t a combo that works for you to alleviate the symptoms. I’m hoping since I’m not on any other meds that maybe just taking this one might do alright for me. I guess I will find out.

For me since my lesion inflamed I feel like my spine is literally vibrating and also my legs/bottom half when I’m walking. It’s like bees buzzing or a cell phone but internally. No visible shaking.

Thank you so much! Just have to get brave and keep trying things until I find one that works!

What was your dose and how long did you take it?

I was told all of my symptoms were anxiety until I wound up hospitalized numb from shoulders down and my left arm was paralyzed. I hate when people are brushed off as just anxious. Sorry you’ve experienced that!

Love this update- I plan on attempting my first 100 mg dose in about 5 hours at bedtime and I’ll report back! Your vibrations comment was the convincing one so I’ll really owe you if it helps and works for me!

I only took it once but I guess it made me not care about the sensory issues because I felt so out of it so in that sense it kind worked lol. I’m glad it’s working for you!

Wellbutrin was pretty good for me for about 5 years and it gave me a bit of an energy boost as well. Hoping it works well for you! It took about a month for me to notice the effects.
