Hello,
Medrol intake is associated with many side effects. Numbness and tingling in the arms and legs are known documented side effects of Medrol. Immediately stop the drug, contact your doctor for the same and get another molecule which may work without side effects of this kind.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Purva Patel
