Rheumy appointment

Had my appointment on monday last week. My Lupus active and iron elevated ++. Am still struggling with headaches but hope they will soon be better! Still tapering on my steroids and this week am on 15mg. I want to be on the lowest dose as I don't like the side effects of steroids... especially weight gain.... which I have gained since february. I have put on 1.5stone and am trying to shed it off!! Keep on keeping on Lupies! x

Just like me. The headaches are at the back of the head. My rheumy increased my steroids to help with the pain but it has been a struggle. I hope you get better soon. Take care x
