What Causes Shivering After Getting A Steroid Injection?

I have very mild well controlled asthma but developed an upper respiratory infection A course of antibiotics and oral steroids didn t help. A walk in clinic gave me a 80 mg injection of Depo Medrol plus Levaquin tablets. My breathing eased quickly but I am now feeling so ill - shaky and wobbly - could I have had a reaction to the steroid injection? I am 68 year old female - overweight but not obese who walks every day.

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

There is no reaction. Its like giving energy by injection when there is none. Due to withdrawal symptoms, steroid usage becomes habitual.

Take care
