Hi allanah. You have my every sympathy. Honestly I feel now that I lost so much weight to "cure" my diabetes that I resent steroids doing this to me grrrrr
Same here.i I'm on pred and sugar levels are double what they should be, that's on living in a very careful way. This seems to have created a meltdown in waterworks department. Had an infection, that's dealt with. Take care ..
Can you not be given sleeping pills to combat this? I have been on Zolpidem 5 days a week for ages to deal with sleeplessness as a result of steroids. They keep telling me they will take me off the steroids once they find the right drug to control the RA. The drug combinations are making me worse than I was in the first place. The up side is that I sleep 5 days a week!! Hope this helps.
