Think of it as a nice holiday - I do. But don't go mad and overdo things.

Yep I've been on them a while now they keep messing my apps at Rumie but it's kept things steady plus painkillers I'm just waiting for dexta scan results see if any damage since last one I have 5 to 7 mg a day plus a bit of weight I feel ok 😝

I agree with Helix on the 'enjoy it while you can' front, tho my OH did feel really cheated when the steroid jab wore off. He wasn't warned of the sudden re-emergence of symptoms. He says at least he will know for another time. Are you on a tapering dose of tabs? If so it might not be so dramatic. All the best.

They're liars, those steroids. Make you feel amazing and then - bam. Back to reality. Try to enjoy your break and forget the 'after'. Hugs
