Something I learned from all the IV steroids I've had. I have them mix it with D5W instead of saline...it's a little kinder on your veins!

The thrush is worse than the IVSM in my book! I hope you get over it soon! It's pretty nasty stuff. Did they give you a rinse for you mouth?

I don't remember exactly what I had, but it helped. Ask the pharmacist.
