Suggest Remedy To Cure MS Flare-ups

I am having MS flare-ups and my current neurologist refuses to treat me with steroids. In the past, I was treated with steroids. This doctor feels that steroids have to many side effects, but the medications he prescribe is not controlling my flare-ups. I am looking for another neurologist.

HI
Well come to HCM
Multiple sclerosis (Symptoms) still can be controlled with steroid only and this is the only drugs which could reverse the symptoms, of course steroid has got many unwanted side effect but here important is MS symptoms which could be even more troublesome than the side effects of steroid, some time symptoms of MS get correct even without the steroid but this is very uncertain, some newer drugs are there for MS but you should be qualified for that, hope this information helps, take care.
