Possible Adrenaline Rushes While Tapering Depo-Medrol
As many readers are aware, I began a weekly regimen of depo-
medrol
injections for PMR in late August of 2016. See my 3 month old post: “Depo-
Medrol
Injections for the Treatment of PMR”.

hypertension - too much NDT or licorice root?
I have been on Adrenaplex for the past few months, after successfully (and finally) managing to wean myself of
Medrol
(put on it in late 2011 after being diagnosed with adrenal fatigue by Hertoghe doctor).

Length of relapse
I'm starting to get a little concerned about the relapse that I am currently having. Although I have seen slight improvement, and most of my energy has returned, I'm still not back to my "normal". It has been close to a month when my symptoms first started, and two weeks since I've been off solumedrol

I am currently considering going back on
Medrol
, or trying HC instead (my doctor prefers
Medrol
to HC as I tended to retain fluid when she first diagnosed me with adrenal fatigue but, since I was on T4 only back then, that could explain the fluid retention, I guess...).

Knee Surgery and lymphedema and other
I take a shot once a month of depo
medrol
for my pain and have found that it takes down the swelling in my legs. If I go over my month it starts swelling again.

Help....
Has anyone returned to normal walking after lots of weakness and numbness in both legs? I have had weakness and numbness/stiffness even after solumedrol. I'm afraid I may never return....😢

Solumedrol
I am so thankful for the support I am feeling from everyone on here. I have been in the hospital for about 4 days on a solumedrol iv. I am still having numbness, tingling, weakness in the legs. I know everyone is different, but if anyone is willing to share their experiences with this, I would greatly

The differences between Prednisone, Prednisolone, and Medrol.
Medrol
, is a brand name for methylprednisolone, which is actually nothing more than prednisolone with a methyl side chain attached. This side chain increases the activity of the prednisolone by approximately 20%, which lowers the required dose by this same amount.

The difference between steroids like Dexamethasone and Medrol Dose Pack, plus radiation of lymph nodes behind the trachea.
When she asked on the 3rd day, he was given
Medrol
Dose Pack 4mg, for a 7 day pack. His radiation involves 13 days. I know nothing about
Medrol
or the dose.

Prednisalone and Depot Medrol alternatives anyone?
I have now developed a horrid sensitivity to the Depot
Medrol
injection with soaking sweating , no sleeping and blurred vision for three weeks every time I get it. After three weeks symptoms subside a little.

Depo-Medrone
Does anyone else have 3 monthly Depo-Medrone IM? If so, how long have you had them for and what noticeable side effects do you have? I'm due for another on Tuesday and my whole body is screaming PAIN! I was the same before the last two and the DM jab takes effect within 24 hours. Happy New Year.

Update on So sick and tired.
I saw my MS Dr on Monday. I absolutely love my Dr. He is so kind and caring, honest and thorough. I just don't like the drive, 47 miles each way. I picked up all my MRI's I have had since the summer. He looked at all of them. He was totally shocked with how fast the progression is. Up until recently,

So sick and tired
I am sorry I haven't been on in a while. I have been in either the hospital or nursing home/rehabs mor than I can count since early summer. I live in a small rural community and our local hospital does not have a neuro dept. Everytime something goes wrong they pagkage me up and send me to Hartford Hospital

Depression effectively treated with more steroids
Because I knew the depo-
medrol
was the source of these wretched side effects, I feared the higher serum levels associated with the fresh injection would exacerbate the problem.

adrenal fatigue supplements
I have tried several supplements for adrenal fatigue in the past year, determined not to go back on prescription drug
Medrol
if it can be avoided. I took
Medrol
for more than four years, but would prefer a more natural way to support my adrenal glands and hopefully restore adrenal function.

Trembling as a side effect of steroids
Soon after receiving depo-
medrol
injections for PMR, I began to suffer from a list of side effects that included trembling. Some days it was mild and didn’t last long; while on other days I shook all over and it lasted for hours.

Hi y'all! I'm Katie from Texas...
I was out this past April-June & had 3 Solu-
medrol
treatments to help w/ extreme Vertigo. Upon returning to work with an Medical Certificate Of Disability, I did my best to resume my duties. I just never felt 100%. So here I am on STD again.
