Corticosteroids side effects

2017-10-30 19:35:31
I had surgery 5 weeks ago for 4 herniated cervical disks. My doctor prescribed corticosteroids shots for the inflammation. I took 4 shots over 2 weeks, the last day of my shots was October 25th and since then I have been experiencing horrible night sweats, uncontrollable hunger, blurry vision, and high blood pressure. Could all of this be a side effect from these injections?
