Had severe sinus headache in May 2011, went to dr. was given a steriod shot and an antibiotic shot. Was perscribed antiobiotic and steriod pac. Headache felt better within 1 hour of shots; about 2 days into treatment had re-occuring hot flashes and wake up early 3 hours like clock work. This continued and worsened some as I continued prescriptions. Finished both. I am 49 years old. It was time for me to have my period when this all happened, never started and havent had a period yet. Could these steriods throw someone into menopause who is already on the edge of it??????
