This is the shut up and smile drug because if you are any kind of curmudgeon or cynical by nature look out!
A few days without good sleep on the 4 days of 40mg and some tired leg muscles.
Be extra kind to everyone or shut up and smile on this drug.

My 10 weeks of dexamethasone treatment were horrible as I experienced the wide spectrum of highs when on the meds and extreme lows when off. Although there were days I didn't think I would survive the treatment, it did work wonders for me in 10 weeks instead of the originally prescribed 15 weeks.
