Welcome to health care magic, I share your concern and I will try to help you out in best possible way.
Methylprednisolone is a steroid that prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation. It is used to treat many different inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, allergic disorders, gland (endocrine) disorders, and conditions that affect the skin, eyes, lungs, stomach, nervous system, or blood cells.
Methylprednisolone can weaken your immune system, making it easier for you to get an infection. Steroids can also worsen an infection you already have, or reactivate an infection you recently had. Hence you should tell your doctor about any illness or infection you have had within the past several weeks.
Common side effects of methylprednisolone include:
headache;
mild muscle pain or weakness; or
stomach discomfort, bloating etc.. However you need to be vigilant 2 notify your doctor if any of the following side effects occur,
blurred vision, tunnel vision, eye pain, or seeing halos around lights;
shortness of breath (even with mild exertion), swelling, rapid weight gain;
severe depression, changes in personality, unusual thoughts or behavior;
new or unusual pain in an arm or leg or in your back;
bloody or tarry stools, coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds;
seizure (convulsions).
Coming to your last question, there are no proven evidence to suggest that methylprednisolone should not be taken by stroke victims, hence you can use methylprednisolone.
I hope this helps you

You should report any new or worsening symptoms to your doctor, such as: mood or behavior changes, anxiety, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, or if you feel impulsive, irritable, agitated, hostile, aggressive, restless, hyperactive (mentally or physically).
