I have been on Decadron and Omnicef since Tuesday; feeling much better (also had recephin (sp?) shot and Depo Medrol shot Monday). BUT, CANNOT SLEEP and have a tight chest. I can breathe, and talk, but chest tight. D/C Decadron after the mornings dose as sleep is a priority! Cannot figure out the tightness in chest.......
