If you are just on the Medrol pack, it shouldn't be too bad. I never had a problem with that - it is pretty low dose compared to the 1000 mg in the IV.

Figures... a nice soothing rub, and poison ivy. Life's like that huh?

I didn't experience weight gain or puffiness on IV solumedrol, or on a month taper off of prednisone, so I'm being optimistic for you in this one.

I am in day 3 of the taper, and I was wondering if this course of steroids might make me feel - well, not light-headed, but sort of LIGHT? It is not an unpleasant feeling. Anybody else experience something like this?
