solumedral

OK

So I called and what I got was called Solumedral, 125 mg

I got that shot at 2pm while gurgling on my saliva and unable to drink anything.

By 4pm I was open... and then for the rest of the night I was wide open.

I was able to drink as much milk as I wanted.

I was able to have pizza and drink milk DURING eating it..

I was able to fall asleep for a few hours and upon waking STILL able to drink all through the night.. Gulp it even.

It wasnt until the next day around noon that I got restrcition back.

OBVIOUSLY I dont need 125mg..

Upon my short research so far.. it looks as if Solumedral is about the same thing as prednisone. I will research it more though.

I need as much that I can take at night before bed.. and lasts until about noon the next day.

CAN an oral prednisone do that... even if its a big dose?

OR, is it because it was intravenious that it lasted for 24 hours?

Thats something else I need to figure out.
