Any time I have had an injection that contained steroids; I would get awful migraine headaches. Some time ago,I had been getting some procedures for my lumbar spine. Was not aware of the sterioid being part of this procedure. I was due for another procedure within a week. I told the nurse; "if I didn't know better, I would think I had had a steroid injection". She told me "you did" the steroid was part of the procedure. This had happened to me before; that is why I had mentioned this awful headache.

This may be a good reason for your headaches. Many people do have this reaction to steroids; especially injections.
