"I had severe neck pain diagnosed as Degenerative Disc Disease. My doctor&#039;s PA prescribed a &quot;Steroid Pack&quot; (I don&#039;t recall the brand name) and some Oxycodone that I asked for.  The Steroid Pack worked practically instantly; and even though I got the Oxycodone script filled at the same time, I did not have to take even one!  The steroid pack was a decreasing dosage that lasted about a week and worked great."
