steroid withdrawals

I had 5 days of iv steroids last month. In 25 years, this was the first time. I feel worse than I did before the steroids. My balance and walking have gotten so much worse. I had four enhancing lesions on last MRI and neuro suggest steroids to avoid a crash before I start my next therapy. Anyone else gotten much worse after steroids?

Yes. In Fact I usually Experience more Skeletal Pain, dizziness, fatigue, and irritability after Steroids. You mean a Solumedrol drip Right?
Mine lasts up to 8 Days afterward. Especially with a 5 Day drip. Lie down, drink lots of Water, and Allow that to get out your System. Take care!
