A member asked:
Used methylprednisolone 4mg for 22 days and stopped 2 months ago. i am seeing muscle weakness. does it go by itself? if so, after how many weeks?

See below: The question I have is why you were using methlyprednisone---was it for myositis because if you are noticing more muscle weakness, it may mean that it is active. If you developed corticosteroid myopathy, you should get better with time and physical though that would be unusual to occur with the length of time that you were on it. See your doctor to further evaluate.
