Taking correctly?: Make sure you are following the directions for your steriod taper to the letter. Do not vary this in any way, shape or form because it can cause problems. It's not unusually to feel "different" after a course of steroids. It's best to touch base with the prescribing physician to see if they want to see you or order any lab testing.
