Hello

I have studied your case.

depomedrol has many side effect ,do not take without consulting your doctor.
Cushing disease can occur due to steroid supplement.
Steroids can lead to peptic ulcer,osteoporosis,avascular necrosis of bones.
You need proper clinical examination and medication accordingly.


I will advise you to take neurotropics like methylcobalamine with analgesics.
