Low dose steroids
I was then put on
steroids
(7.5 pred) as I wasn’t coping with awful pain, swelling etc. I’ve now moved to a urine antiseptic (Hiprex), instead of antibiotics to at least let me take my metoject jabs again but I’m still on pred.

Betcha your doubling rate is lower than mine :-)
Current theory is that the pile of
steroids
they threw at my spleen over the weekend has kicked loose some artifacts in my blood. Since this has also spiked my potassium (K) counts, they are bringing me back in tomorrow to rerun, as there's a chance of triggering heart arrhythmia at that level.

Covid and flu jabs
I am due to have both but am worried about side effects while on
steroids
. Should I just do it for my own protection.

4th infusion of immunotherapy drug JANX007
The MO and sponsor have stopped premedicating me with
steroids
and the infusion had been for 1 hour. They have cut the infusion time to 30 minutes. I am still running a low grade fever at times. Where my lesions are located has caused me to have increased pain in those locations.

Life after Rituximab? What is the next chapter?
Diagnose with GPA in December 2019 and after the usual cocktail of
Steroids
Cyclophosphamide and an unsuccessful spell with Azathioprine I now approach my next infusion of Rituximab in a couple of weeks. My Consultant is saying because my ANCA marker is so low this should be my last one.

How can I reduce the swelling in my foot and ankle?
Hello I was diagnosed with RA about six weeks ago and am on 20 mg methotrexate and 5 mg folic acid and have had a steroid injection. I can see improvement in other places but my right foot and ankle are swollen so I can only walk really short distances with a limp. I am worried that I will not be able

Article on steroid side effects (dated Nov 2018)
The diagnosis of cataracts in steroid users may be because those on
steroids
tend to have more eye exam. (Which reminds me to book my next.) https://www.practicalpainmanagement.com/resources/news-and-research/polymyalgia-rheumatica-steroid-side-effects-new-findings

ossible Relapse
Have had a tkr 7 weeks ago and saw my othopaedic consultant few days ago who said he would ask GP to give a short dose of
steroids
(he thought symptoms maybe from using crutches) Has anyone had short dose in relapse and it helped? Also are blood tests always correct with ESR and CRP? thank you

New here, need some advice please, has pmr returned and what should i do?
After a look at my notes and very little examination, he suggested i start taking
steroids
immediately. I was reluctant to do this so we agreed to wait for the result of a blood test. This showed normal ESR levels so i did not start on the
steroids
.

*Sensitive* OTD and it's a BFP.
It was PGTA tested embryo and this time I was on 10mg of
steroids
and also had intralipids and a HCG infusion just before transfer. Something obviously did the trick or it could just be pure luck! Who knows.

Prednisolone 5mg soluble tablets as mouthwash
I've recently heard of
steroids
used as a mouthwash for oral pain. I've suffered with oral pain since 2017, even before I was diagnosed with lupus.

flare and more steroids
My consultant called me and has prescribed another course of
steroids
while I’m waiting for biologics. My question is, has anyone felt RA pains they usually get in smaller joints in their jaw??
