Side effect of Wysolone steriod in BY pateint (Cardace 2.5 since a month) + MRI suggestive findings of Basal Ganglia Calficication Recently I have done Enhanced Contracst MRI Scan of Brain to check CPA is effect ot not due to pain in right ear. Fortunately all results came out perfect but 2 key findings which i am really worried. 1 . mass lession tissue seen in intracornal between right orbit and optic nerve in small size less than 7 mm in all parameters with differential information infection from lymphotic malformation, psedotumor and hemangioma . 2. MRI suggestive information that there is bilaterral symmetrical basal ganglia calcification and dentate nuclie possibly of Farh disease likely. Correlate with clinical results. Due to above 2 findinds I have anxiety and my BP gone upto 150/90. Now under medication on cardace 2.5 since a month. Have undergone ECHO, ECG, Lipid Profile - all normal. Consulted neoro dr. test conducted for Cal. Potssa. Alka. PTH all are normal. But dr. advice me to take wysolone steriod one course - 2 times/dayx10 days+1&1/2x3 days+1x3days+1/2x3days for tissue mass. Consulted Drs.
