Rough after treatment

Started my treatment Tuesday morning had my first steroid injection, was very achy and my joints was hurting yesterday but today I feel like I have been hit with the flu 10x bad, feel sick to the bone and worst headache ever... Is this normal after having a steroid injection?

Not normal for me when I have injections - sounds like a big lupus flare not the steroid. I would contact your clinic nurse specialist or GP if you feel the same today especially if you have any signs of infection. I presume you have started on other lupus meds besides the steroid injections?

Oh great, well Iv had hardly no sleep what's so ever feel even worse this morning so made an appoitment to see my GP in the next hour... No all I was given was a steroid injection and will be starting hydrocloquine in September x

Hope your appointment with the GP went well xx
