Hello,

As you explain the situation, it might be that patients under treatment with steroids to feel weak and tired but in your case the time of using that is short. I don't think it might be from steroids use. Control your blood pressure instead.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Jolanda Nikolla, Pulmonologist
