    Thank you for posting. I'm on a 6-day regiment and this medication has worked for me almost immediately! I have a lumbar injury in my back of course and sciatica pain is off the scale! And my only options were surgery or epidural or physical therapy. But my doctor decided to do a less evasive treatment by putting me on the prescription and it's worked So far amazing for me with no side effects. I personally only plan on being it for short-term which is this six pack that I have..

I am willing to try a half or 1 pill instead of 2 . to start. I will see how my body interacts with it. If it's got me running around looking like a crack head .To the trash with it.

    Possible side effects of this thing are nightmarish: Glaucoma cause of increased intraocular pressure, Cataracts , osteoporosis , decreased bone density, manifestations of latent Diabetes. Other side effects are: thinning of skin, stretch marks, elevated blood sugar, elevated cholesterol, peptic ulcers (!!) , growth suppression, muscle wasting.
    It can lead to swelling of the fingers, hands, feet, or lower legs (after long term swelling skin just peels off...trust me it's scary I thought I will lose my legs).
    And on top of that it lowers testosterone level ... It can lead to erectile dysfunction.

    Hello
    I was prescribed this medication today for a swollen wrist ( it’s like a cyst) it’s not painful, I had sprained my wrist month ago, the sprained healed but it’s looks like a swollen Almost a lump like at my inner right corner wrist of my right hand. Have being having doubt taking this medication because I don’t have any more pain I’m just worried about the inflamed area which is not too big, please do you have any other suggestions or recommendations

    • @demirxcare9577
      @demirxcare9577  Рік тому

      Hi Naomie, this medication should definitely help with inflammation and reduce the swelling as prescribed. It’s not necessarily used as a pain medication, it’s more of an anti inflammation steroid drug , so if you are still having inflammation in your swollen wrist area, it should help.

    • @natashanonnattive4818
      @natashanonnattive4818 Рік тому

      It's probably caused by a hit to your hand. A cyst from the trauma or not but they go away by themselves usually. I wouldn't take it because it's leaches calcium from your bones. It makes my bones hurt the last time I took a dose pack. Fyi

    I was given an iv of 125mg of methylprednisolone (solu-medrol) two months ago in the ER for an allergic reaction that gave me rashes and it gave me a rare case of extensor tendonitis on top of both feet. Even tho it got better it’s still here and more mild but now my right tibia is aching/cramps/contractions. It’s already two months and still my feet have not improved 100% smh. Sometimes my neck gets stiff. This thing is hell and garbage. I do not recommend corticosteroids like methylprednisolone, prednisone or prednisolone to anyone unless it’s a emergency or something extremely serious and urgent.

      Hi Mr. Syed, usually withdrawal symptoms may happen if your body is not able to tolerate the lowering of the dose. I would recommend visiting your doctor to pinpoint if these withdrawal symptoms are due to change in dosage or if you have an underlying condition that may be triggering those symptoms.

    • @demirxcare9577
      @demirxcare9577  2 роки тому

      Hello, the withdrawal side effect of medrol does include joint or muscle pain. Did you have two days worth of pills left or just two pills from the last day of use ? If it is just two pills , there is a lesser chance that the pain is a form of withdrawal side effect. If you are still having an arthritic pain, I will consider informing your physician so you could be prescribed a NSAID ( non steroidal anti inflammatory drug) like ibuprofen or diclofenac. You may also consult with us at www.demirxcare.com. We are affiliated with prescriber that could help with this.
