Steroids, statins, strange query
I was put on 80mg Atvostatin mid Aug following a TIA/Afib episode and diagnosis. From mid September I started to suffer an intermittent throbbing, burning pain on the ball of my foot and last three toes. It comes on suddenly such as during the short 1 mile walk I’ve just completed. Bloods in Sept showed

Cough after embryo transfer
Hi All, I had my 6th embryo transfer yesterday and this time I’m being treated with an immune protocol including
steroids
and other drugs. I’ve managed to pick up a cough and it seems worse after the transfer. Has anyone experienced a cough/cold after transfer and had any successes please?

steroids

What worked for your BFP ?
Despite the tests being fine this time my consultant is giving me
steroids
, blood thinning injections, extra progesterone pessaries and luibon. Just wondering what other things you have tried ?

Blood test results
She also seemed a bit concerned about white blood cell results but put it down to being on
steroids
, just wondering if anyone else has increased white blood cell results. Many thanks.

Long term Steroids.
Many thanks for all your replies to my post.As I stated before, I am due to see my new Rheumatoid Consultant next week, so I'm very hopeful that she will help me on my journey and give me a suitable Rheumy drug that will suit me. I can then hopefully, slowly come off the Predisolone.

Inflammation and RLS redux
I've seen a tiny number of articles discussing the comorbidity of RLS with autoimmune and other inflammatory conditions, including this one that states that
steroids
do improve RLS in some: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1087079222001575 But in my case,

Prednisolone and skin thinning
I think I’ve heard that long term use of
steroids
can cause the skin to get thinner - is this a thing? I’m wondering if it’s a cause of my difficulty shaking off the cellulitis that’s been bugging me over the past few weeks. Has anyone else had this?

Steroid protocol - how long did you stay on steroids?
Hi all, happy new year to you all, hope everyone's doing ok ❤️ I'm wondering how long people were instructed to stay on
steroids
? We were lucky enough to get our first ever BFP on our first donor egg transfer before Christmas.

Mood and sleep disturbance on longterm steroids- useful article, page 1
I had no idea that
steroids
can make it hard to regulate mood and feel motivated. A psychologist specialising in the area explains how this happens and suggests ways we might be able to counter those effects.
