Missjess Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I am getting to the bottom of my hppd and I am convinced it might actually be MS I react to everything and I have just discovered that it's an inflammatory reaction set off by my immune system. STEROIDS work!! If the neuro finds inflammation in my cns and brain hopefully he will start me on a course of high dose steroid treatment. Just thought I would share with everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendan Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 i suspect it is a secondary effect of hppd rather than primary, although i suspect it may also be a predisposing factor. Anti inflammatories make me feel better but don't hit the hppd directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrade Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Have you looked at maybe histamine being a cause of some symptoms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onelovez Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Interesting. Let us know how the treatment goes. Also if you would like to share your thought, evidences with me, id be happy to write them down, so later the people interested could compare the experiences, facts, reactions to drugs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it lessens the HPPD doesnt mean its a direct fix. The steroid your most likely referring to is prednisone(corticosteroid) and has a strong stress reduction effect, as it is naturally released from the adrenal glands in response to stress. This is most likely what is attributing to the lessened symptoms of HPPD. Also, prednisone has very harsh side effects, I would highly suggest you research what you are considering using as a "treatment". Its also highly improbable that inflammation is the cause of HPPD. Im not going to address the reasons as to why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
