I just started having signs of optic neurtis. I have been taking Rebif for a month and a half. I thought this was supposed to slow the progression. I don't have any other symptoms and have my next neuro. appt. Jan 22. Can I wait? It is a bit painful but I can live through til then. What should I do???

Call your Nueroligst immediately. Solumedrol can help to reduce the attack. I lost vision permanently in my right eye from Optic Nueritis. You should get on the IV Solumedrol ASAP. Don't Wait.

I agree, call your neuro!!!

Yes I agree see Neuro as quickly as you can. One thing people need to realize is that Rebif takes up to a year before it actually starts working for you.

My neuro told me to call if any new symptoms worsen or appear and last 24 hours.

PLEASE DO NOT WAIT. SEE YOUR DR ASAP. I agree with tmanz completely.

Optic neuritis? I thought that WAS an attack. I woke up one morning last year and I couldn't see good out of my left eye! All the steriods and pills didn't work. I still can't see good.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
