ve only had one relapse, a year ago which resulted in my
MS diagnosis, but I was hospitalized
for the 5-day
IV Solumedrol. It was 4 x per day -- every 6 hrs.
The reason for the hospital stay was the need for round-the-clock infusions (no infusion center available at all hours), PLUS Solumedrol can raise blood sugar to dangerous levels, so I had blood sugar tested every 4 or 6 hrs -- got up to 145 once, and 130 twice (I'm not diabetic). I was given insulin shots then.
