Sounds like typical side effects to me. I took solumedrol monthly, 5 doses a month, for almost 2 years. I got to the point where I had to take xanex a couple of times a day while I was taking the sol ...

How wonderful Carolsue-My coworkers are who I receive donations from. One of the paralegals I work with donates $100 every single year. Glad to hear you are going to participate as well.
