BERNIE, I HAD MASSIVE DOSES OF STERIODS IN HOSPITAL WHEN LEGS STOPPED MOVING AND PAIN HORRIBLE. THE STERIODS GOT MY LEGS MOVING EVERY TIME IT HAPPENED.. IN 14 YEARS IT HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES. I AM ON 15 MGS OF PREDNISONE NOW. I HAD MANY YEARS WITH NO PROBLEMS. I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL IN JUNE AND I AM WALKING WITH WALKER NOW FOR SAFETY. BEEN ON STERIODS SINCE THEN. THEY DECREASING THEM BUT I FEEL STIFFER NOW. THEY OR GETTING ME OFF OF THEM , ON TUESDAY I GO TO 10 MGS THEN TO FIVE AND OFF. I DO HAVE A HERNIATED DICS AT L 4 L 5 WHICH WAS OPERATED ON 2 YEARS AGO, NOW IS BACK. I WILL NOT HAVE MORE SURGERY JUST MORE SCAR TISSUE. I THINK I WOULD BE ALOT BETTER IF DISC WAS NOT HERNIATED. DOCTORS WANT ME OFF THE STEROIDS ALSO. I HOPE I DO NOT HAVE ANOTHER EPISODE ITS BEEN 4 YEARS SINCE MY LEGS STOPPED MOVING.THEY HAVE ME ON IMURAN 50 MGS A DAY FOR MY IMMUNE SYSTEM. STEROIDS OR GOOD BUT THEY HAVE AWFUL SIDE EFFECTS.                HAVE A GOOD HOLIDAY ALL                         PAM
