I got sick over 3 months ago and was prescribed a ZPack and a
Medrol
Pack. Three days into the treatment, I began experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, and insomnia.

Facial numbness/tingling and congestion
I have been taking
medrol
(methyprednisolone) and Tocilizumab and just decreased to 12 mg
medrol
, which is the equivalent of 15 mg. prednisone.

Depo-Medrol Injection and nausea
Hi everyone, Just wondered if anyone has had a chronic reaction to a steroid shot? I am only tiny and was given 120mg a month ago and I am literally grounded still with the worst nausea. I can barely eat and have lost 3/4 stone so am down to 7 stone ☹️ Is it possible I had too higher dose and my immune

Steroid side effects?
After my GCA diagnosis I am on 40 mg
Medrol
at the moment. The classic GCA symptoms like headache, jaw pain, scalp tenderness 99% gone. Also my dry cough is totally stopped. But.. I have other weird and frustrating symptoms.

Estradiol, QoL and inflammation
After Zytiga and
Medrol
were added. PSA declined to .40 in February 2024. While I have been happy with recent treatment, the meds brought on joint and muscle pain and aggravated mobility issues (previous back surgery, three collapsed vertebrae).

Bruising on legs
I have been on
medrol
now for 8 years. I’m down to 3mg. I have experienced easy bruising on my legs they have lead to severe wounds. I now wear compression socks and padded protection on my lower legs. My question is, do the dark spots left over from the bruising ever go away?

bombing a flare
That was followed by a
Medrol
pack for the next week and, with exercise, I got over the sciatica. Of course, we know about sciatica but not about PMR, and they are so very different in kind and effect.

Fell today. Flare or injury?
Also may have hurt RIGHT shoulder and upper arm which had already been symptomatic (and I raised
medrol
dose 5 mgs—didn’t help but doc doesn’t want me to add more.) It hurts to move it certain ways more than before and Ibus didn’t help.

Flushing and menthol sensations
I stopped using any steroids (low dose prednisone and depo
medrol
knee injections), B3, alpha lipoic acid and quercerin. Allergist did a tryptase test (normal) and has ordered another within 12 hours of next reaction (I'm hoping it never comes) She also ordered epi pen.

Ocrevus Infusion - First Time
First, they will insert the IV and give you Benadryl (which will make you sleepy so take advantage, get comfy, and nap), aspirin, and
medrol
(steroid). Once you finish the steroid bag, they will hang the Ocrevus bag for your infusion.

I've had one round of IV

1gm x 3 days with a result of minor improvement of symptoms. I'm currently waiting to see a neurologist to confirm this diagnosis.

I suffer from Anxiety/Panic attacks
I'm also almost finished with the
medrol
pack, which isn't doing anything to help the tightness in my ears.

From 4 mg of Prednisone to 240mg of Solumedrol.. in 30 hours....
I'm in the hospital contemplating the curses and blessings of prednisone and the whole family of steroids. I have chronic asthma and haven't had a severe asthma attack for 13 years. Who knows maybe all my prednisone was protecting me. I've been tapering slowly and last Wednesday had a routine visit and

long awaited rheumy appointment
nearly a year, then appt just 15 minutes long…was booked as a 45 mins appt. Nobody went in before me, I was only one in waiting room, & I saw him go into his room 5 mins before my appt time. I then waited 35 minutes. He seemed angry because I’d been given a new patient appt when I’d been seen twice before
