Hi Jo,
This is only the 1st day taking Methylpredinisolone. And, I already feel a difference.
I feel the new flare up has gone down a little...and it's not so painful anymore....I hope this will make it disappear!
Today, my lab report came back! I'm confirmed to have GM!!!!!!!
So, I was right and joined the correct group. I'm in here for good!!!!!

Hi - I thought I would include the definition. I have tried Prednisone, not sure if they are the same. Seems like they must be related. Jo
