I have a viral issue that attacked one of my hearing nerves. Prednisone was prescribed at 50mg a day and my blood sugars went into the 500s. that was a horrible month for me.

Last week surging my cervical spinal fusion they had to use a steroid during the procedure and the same thing happened. Good thing I was stufk in the hospital for a few days and they keep a good eye on my blood glucose levels and administered insulin as needed.

I was asked about corticostroid shots for my knee and I refused before he could even get all the words out. he wished more patients would educate themselves on the issues. Problem is, they get the shot feel like a super hero for a little while and when it wears off they want another.
