Steroid Pseudorheumatism (Arthralgias and Myalgias Associated with Steroid Withdrawal)

Has the patient recently discontinued corticosteroid therapy?

Has the patient had the recent onset of diffuse arthralgias, myalgias and tendon pain?

Does the patient have joint and muscle tenderness on palpation?

Does the patient complain of fatigue, memory deficits and/or acting irresponsibility?

Is there another condition that can explain the findings better?

Have symptoms remitted after restarting steroids?
