The doc put me one steroids a couple of days ago and this happened once before to me. If you forget to take them like I did yesterday, you go through withdraws! I took them now, but they haven't kicked in yet and boy oh boy, I don't like withdraws!

Not feeling to well right now!

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

I was driving home from the store when it hit me today, and I had to pull over and let my step son drive home, it was ttthat bad!

The medicine is kicking in now, but I don't think I can make it out tonight!

Steroids are tough on the body....and you have to wean yourself off them. no cold turkey and it sounds like you went through withdrawles..bummer, Mike.

My oldest had to be on them for some rash/allergy thing she had going on once. Poor kid put on 10 lbs. in a month and was a mess for a couple after.

I had no idea steroids gave you withdrawl symptoms like that. What'd you get the shakes or nauseated or something?

 

[afiremen]

Yes I got the shakes and very light headed and just couldn't function! I take 4 pill for 3 days the 3 pills for 3 days then 2 pills for 3 days the 1 pill for 3 days to wean myself off of them! You can't just stop cold turkey!
