Dxd w/rrms left side numbness, left side eye pain. finished 3day iv steroids & prednisone titration 2days ago. eye pain is back, did the meds not work?

Yes/no: All the steroid will do is speed up your relapse episode, you may still be left with some permanent problems at the end of the relapse, with or without steroids. Be sure to follow up with your neurologist soon.
