S -

I can understand your anger at the doctor who gave you a medication you clearly should NEVER have received!! It would be wise to ask a malpractice attorney what your recourse would be. FIRST, though, PLEASE continue to see your phychiatrist/psychologist to help you through this!! Depending on your dose of the shot, and which type of steroid you were given, determines how long the medication will last in your system. For me, it take a MINIMUM of 3 weeks to START easing up after a higher dose injection as opposed to the oral prednisone.

I know how hard this must be for you...but TRY to be kind to yourself in this time...the more stress you create worrying, the longer it will take to ease up.

We are here for you anytime!!
