I took the 6 day pack and became anxious and began sobbing everyday. This is my first day off of the medicine and waves of extreme sadness without sobbing are occurring. I also still have muscle weakness and twitching. I am unable to leave the house and am worried about how long this will drag out. When will I be able to resume my regular life?

Have you consulted your doctor?

Medrol contains the active ingredient Methylprednisolone, which is a steroid class medication, so it can have some weird side effects, however, you should consult your physician to ascertain whether or not the medication is causing this.

I have just read that this medicine depletes potassium and that my symptoms are also ones of low potassium, I plan to eat the bananas and Gaterade suggested and will let you know.

It turns out that this drug affects your blood sugar. My doctor says it can go as high as 300. I am not diabetic but am experiencing blood sugar swings. Avoiding sugary foods and eating more protein has helped. Drinking orange juice was the clue. My lids were so heavy, I could hardly lift them. Hope this helps you.

Yea me too. I m usually a very anxious person.But when I was on Medrol it was far more intense. Id pass out and wake up an hour later with heart racing anxiety. I didnt read the symptoms because sometimes doing that makes you feel like you have side effects when really you don't. Anyhow I get a glass of water and have a popsicle! Usually does the trick!! Good luck :)

Sathurday i went to emergency because my face was red due to the facial cream i was using and who was presribed by my dermatologist.
Doc at emergency gave me two pills of Medrol , because she was assuming its probably some alergy reaction .I didnt wanna take those , cuz i was affraid of possible side effects , but she told me not to worry and its safe .
Its been 4 days now since i have terrible mood swings , my body is shaking ,my legs are weak .Can this be due to those two pills that she gave me ,and when those syptoms will stop .
