confused about thyroid and adrenal treatment
I was on
Medrol
(6 mg daily) for a little over a year, but then my GP diagnosed me with prediabetes, and sent me to an endo who freaked out when he found out I was taking
Medrol
. He told me to get off it asap, although I had to wean off it very slowly to avoid horrible withdrawal symptoms.

Any advice for a newbie?
Hello, I am very new to this, only getting a diagnosis a couple of weeks ago. I saw a consultant and she gave me an injection of 120mg depo medrone and I have just received a letter for a appointment with the specialist nurse in about 3 wks. But my knee is still swollen and stiff, my ankle/foot hurts

Interesting Treatments
When I have a flare up of ulcers I call my primary doctor who prescribes a Solu-
Medrol
dose pack and Vicodan, as my rheum. does not. I am fortunate to have a compassionate primary doc, however he does not have experience with Behcet's, except with me.

Just had 1st appointment with rheumy nurse.
It was a long one! I am well armed and informed, she was completely lovely, I have my blood results and it seems I am ra positive, crp 47, ccp 500, All other baseline results ok, I have my script for mtx and she wants me to start that next week, oh and my folic acid to take two days later

what is the difference between oral steroids and a steroid injection?
I had an intramuscular depo medrone injection but didn't seem to get the same result as when I get oral steroids. Does anyone know what the difference is between the two and why so I seem to get a better result for tennis elbow/hip bursitis from the oral steroids? Advice would really be appreciated

Medrol
but her body has not yet responded to the treatment which is being catered to her.

I think I am paying the price for the night out last night!
Went to a friend's 60th birthday party last night and was dancing the night away until midnight - not late by most people's standards I suppose, but late for me! Was beginning to have aches in arms and legs by the end and woke with various joint pains this morning! The pains were coming back anyway -

Steroid injection doesn't seem to have kicked in!
Hi, I got a Depo-Medrone injection over a week ago but it doesn't seem to have kicked in. Still in a lot of pain. I am on Methtrexate 17.5 mg. Saw the rheumy nurse last week who gave me the injection and said that the rheumatologist should review my medicines. My appointment with the rheumatologist

Does anyone have Autoimmune Hepatitis in addition to RA?
I have had to come off Mxt due to rising liver enzymes, but it looks like that might be a red herring. My liver enzymes were only slightly raised until 7 weeks after stopping the Mxt when they went through the roof! The docs were insisting that the drug was responsible, but they are now querying AIH

My story with lupus, APS and it's complications
Unfortunately it not responding as well I relapse so I finish taking 2nd dose 1gm of Solu
Medrol
which turns out to be like taking 1400 mg of prednisone. I'm tweaking tonight.

Living with PMR with no prednisone
Finally, I went back to my GP, told him of my experience and he suggested that I have periodic (4 to 6 weeks) shots of solu-
medrol
. He said since I then would not be metabolizing the steroid there should not be side effects. He also said to just come back when I felt I needed another shot.

Depo medrone (or medrol?) injection
Hello, can anyone tell me how long it could take for this to kick in (had it in my backside) because I understood from the rheumy nurse that it is usually about 24 hours. I am so glad thay gave me one (my first ever) but am desperate to feel relief. Thanks, Julie.
