Hi June 2019

[Alley27]

This is a photo taken in June last year at the beginning of my flare. I have brilliant makeup skills...as you can see, not swollen yet...before the mycophenolate and steroids took hold. The other pic is September the same year and that dress was the second one I bought in a week because I went up a whole dress size overnight, literally...

Hi i never put weight on with the steriods the only thing was my blood sugars were hard to manage while I was on them . I have a friend and the steriods affect her in the same way as u . I take both adoport and mycophenolate and have done since my transplant . Meds do alot of strange things 2 us it's just getting the right combination. Take care. X

My hubby has to take a steroid boost 2 to 3 times a year and taper off over a month. He noticed the 1st time he did this that his weight increased. It is due to the side effect of the steroid increasing the appetite so now he knows that, he ignores the hunger pangs and eats less and more healthily during that time so has no weight issue while taking them.
