Staggering Steroids
Think I read on here that
steroids
can vary in their effectiveness from 12 to 36 hours. I wondered as my pains tend to return late evening if the
steroids
for me tend to only to be effective for 12 or so hours.

Tapering Steroids
Hi I've been in touch with the hospital about starting to taper the oral
steroids
I've been taking for the last few months and they have basically left it to me!

Plaquenil for PMR
Hello has anyone taken Plaquenil to help reduce
steroids
for PMR? did it work? any side effects? My Rheumy says it's better to be on Plaquenil than
steroids
long term so it's worth trying because I'm having trouble getting off
steroids
.

Coming down my steroids
hi , haven’t posted for a while. I have now after 2 years come down to 2 and a half milligrams per day having slowly reduced from 50 milligrams per day and I have found my rheumatoid arthritis is now getting worse especially in my hands. My rheumatologist has suggested I reduce only by half a milligram

intralipids without the steroids?
They’ve suggested intralipids and
steroids
. I don’t mind the look of the intralipids but I really don’t want to take the
steroids
- I have done abit of reading and I’m worried about the possible impact on the developing baby of these (I’m a massive worrier so i just think I’d end up worrying??)

Steroids 30mg
I really don’t want to take the
steroids
because I had really bad acne on a big dose before and other issues like stomach pains etc. Do you think it’s wise to carry on taking my 1mg and ignore the 30mg prescription?

PMR, steroids and osteopenia.
It really helps to know I am not alone, so many questions about PMR and
steroids
, so much to learn. I now feel that if I get the chance to talk to a doctor I can at least hold my own to some extent. Before being diagnosed with PMR, I was diagnosed with osteopenia.

Prednisolone and weight
He was a skinny thing all his life until now, so putting on 10kg in 4 months has been quite a shock to him.Is it likely that, as he takes fewer
steroids
(and maybe even one day, zero
steroids
) it will get better?

Blood Pressure spikes from steroids
has anyone experienced or know about irregular blood pressure while taking
steroids
? I’ve been taking
steroids
for 2.5 years and now all of a sudden I noticed my heart is racing in the afternoon and evenings. It wakes me up sometimes.

AF and Steroids
She tolerates this well but has recently been prescribed
steroids
for chronic pain. She has noticed an increase in heart rate and has had two episodes of AF this week which is unusual for her. Do you think the
steroids
are related or just coincidence. Is starting to worry which is not helping.
