Sometimes you have to wait months to improve

Which DMT are you taking, if any? I get that with Tecfidera sometimes - and when I first started it, it was daily. Now I've found some ways to avoid it (MITO food plan, avoid food sensitivity foods, CBD oil regimen, essential oils for specific symptoms.....), so it only happens rarely. For me it's the right side of my face which is the side of my body where I've had most MS symptoms occur thus far. Good luck to you & hope you find a solution soon! XX

I don't take any DMT actually. I was advised that my case is mild and no need to take them and i feel comfortable with this decision. But actually i was on Keto diet just before this attack. Doctor said its not related and actually good to me. Don't know what to do.

When was the last time you had cortisone?
Sometimes it takes weeks
