Advice & Tips
This was an intravenous treatment, administered at the hospital. I just finished my second round of treatment, and unfortunately it hasn't helped my optic neuritis at all. My side effects include nasty filmy stuff on the inside of your mouth making it IMPOSSIBLE to enjoy eating anything, sensitivity to light/sound, incredible fatigue (as opposed to the ridiculous amount of energy that you normally get with steroids), and stinky pee. Sorry if it's crass - but I'm sharing everything. No unexpected benefits so far.
