Epidural and steroid injection- side effects
32 female, US - currently 110lbs, taking Lexapro 5mg per day and hydroxyzine 25mg as needed
On January 29, February 12, and February 26 I received steroid injections. One in the coccyx, cervical, and knee.
Recently I have become extremely bloated and my period has been heavy and has lasted for 9 days so far. are these common side effects? The bloating has been extremely uncomfortable. I have also noticed an increase in appetite.
I was not told of abdominal bloating and possible hormonal fluctuations before these injections.
