Shortest Time Between Steroid Sets?
What is the shortest amount of time you've had between needing sets of steroids? Background: I only started showing symptoms in March 2019, and I've been lucky that they are still pretty mild (mostly just occasional tingling and altered sensation, with some swallowing difficulty and increased constipation

Finally got home late last night!
And I don't even know what happened! Yikes! Except that I had 3days of prednisone, then saw my neurologist. Then the next day he wants me in the hospital.š He even got my daughter on a conference call to make me! Ugh! What's up with that? Anyway, another 2 days of Solu-Medrol, and an MRI. To show

What was your Medrol protocol? Worried my doctor doesn't know what he is doing. Please help
Hi All, Sorry for the aggressive title but I am nervous because my doctor doesn't normally prescribe steroids and I have pressured him into allowing me to try them after 6 failed FET's with DONOR eggs. They were all perfect PGS tested embryos. Its been absolutely devastating and I will be trying with

Medrol?
Hi Eveyone- Hoping to hear some success stories with FET while using Medrol? I have one embryo left. I had 2 failed transfers prior with perfect PGS tested embryos in July and September. I also have had a chemical pregnancy in the past with a FET that was not PGS tested. This is my last embryo and the

Been to hormone specialist...not sure what to think?!
I am new here, but not new to thyroid problems. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in 2001 after years of symptoms no doctor could explain: high blood pressure difficult to control even with medication, hair loss, high cholesterol, weight gain and fluid retention. Doctors suggested I was eating too much

Trying to reduce Medrol
Diagnosed quickly in May in US. Pain control worked at 32 mg Medrol. Currently at 20 mg and feel pretty good! Shoulders are sore in the morning but mild compared to initial onset pain. Due to reduce again in a few days and wondering if I should go to 18 mg or down to 16? I keep reading 10% reduction

Not a question, more a sharing
Went to the Royal Free, Hampstead for scheduled appointment for PMR yesterday. I'm now nearly a year in from the initial diagnosis. Head of this department I originally saw privately. He gave me an injection of Depo-Medrone 120mg to see if my symptoms went away as a diagnostic tool. They did. Couldn't

IM steroid injection - when will it start working?
I recently got the IM depo medrone steroid injection into my left thigh to help with inflammation and pain for my possible RA. I would love to hear other people's experiences of it and the effects. It's been six days since I've had the injection, I've definitely noticed less stiffness and a bit less

A little sigh of relief ....
First of all, I'm so thankful for every one of you...I go to the 'almost ready to cave point' but all of your input kept me from accepting what I knew in my heart was wrong and made it really scary to go to bed tonight. I just got an email from the rheumatologist "who felt so unsettled he contacted the

Confused and angry... and scared...
I received an email from my rheumatologist this morning telling me that he does not believe the blurry vision is the result of GCA and [i]not to take the 20 mg the ophthalmologist told me to take and to take only 6mg per day...starting tomorrow because my labs were normal.[/i] That sounds familiar.

Feeling terrible and need advice on dose to go back up to
Hi my fellow PMR people. I know I have been remiss in sharing my story, and I've been thinking I will sit down and do that soon so anyone with the weird side effects I have had won't feel so weird :-). In the meantime, I have a taper problem and need your input please. I'll give you a nutshell version

Methotrexate, steroids, COVID-19
Hi all, I'm UCTD, and for about five years, I've been a full dose (2 x daily) of hydroxychloroquine. I've been having a flair more or less since lock-down started. Normally when this happens, I get a Depo-Medrone injection (methylprednisolonen), which settles me down anywhere from a few months to a couple

Calendar blanks for tapering, if needed.
This may be old news to many but just in case~~ https://print-a-calendar.com/may-2020 You can advance and print whatever months you want. This is a link where you can print out blank calendar pages, which I definitely need to know how much Medrol to take when now that I'm doing the slooooooow taper~

Dexamethasone
Is anyone on Dexamethasone ? I was speaking to my Endo as I also have addison's and asked why was I not on Dexamethasone in addition to my Solu-Cortef (I am on the cortisol Pump) as the Cortef is for addion's but I need a strong anti inflammatory in addition, as Cortef has 30 x more anti inflammatory
