MIght need to change medications? 

  

I have started reacting to just about everything that is floating in the air.

Well, maybe not everything, but I have been breaking out in my little wheals and getting the itchy neck reaction on and off for weeks now. One of my doctors said it might be the medications I take to control my pain and muscle spasms.

I can't go without pain medication, though. It is too severe.

I wondering if it might not be better for me to request a cycle of prednisone to calm the reactions because my other choice seems to be using methadone for long term, daily pain control.

What would you do if you were in my shoes? Natural or organic pain control is no longer an option.

I would do what the doctor says- They would be the one to make this call. Sounds like it's a pretty important decision and risky.
