Hi all - has anyone ever had a negative experience with the depo medrol steroid shot? I took Orion to the vet three days ago for very slight wheezing sounds I'd been hearing for awhile. They think he has allergies or asthma. They gave him a shot to see if the anti-inflammatory properties would help him. That night through now he has been extremely lethargic, and seemingly depressed (uninterested in things he usually likes, won't jump up where he generally sits, mostly just lies down, way less vocal, etc). It seems like it might be the shot? I emailed the vet who said that sometimes this can be a side effect but it's very uncommon. They also told me to bring him back sooner rather than later, so we're going back tomorrow. Has anyone dealt with this?
