I got a deco shot about 6 weeks ago as I was having severe pain on breathing, a bad headache and general joint pain and shortness of breath. It took about a week, but made everything really subside. I was surprised it made the headache go away, as even codeine hadn't done that. Well it's now 6 weeks later and everything came back and hit me like a ton of bricks yesterday.
I can't take steroids on a regular basis because of a psychotic reaction I had to it. I'm afraid to get the shot too often, as I don't want that reaction to happen again.
My question is, how long does a steroid shot usually last? And do the symptoms usually come back this quickly and this strong?
Like I said even codeine didn't touch the headache which the shot completely got rid of. I dread having this headache long term again.
Thanks for any info,
Brenda
