overheating and PMR
However, the rheumy discounted this and after starting on
steroids
at 60 mg I quickly reduced to 10. I stayed on this for sometime because of stressful family issues. However, over the last six months I have successfully reduced to 5 mg of steroid.

Methotrexate Confusion
It is this statement that is now causing me confusion, as the sole purpose of me taking MTX is to help me get off
steroids
altogether, but this is suggesting the contrary may occur?

blood platelets low again
After several months of trying different
steroids
I am now on Adalimumab injections which seem to be working but I’ve only been on them for a month. Anyway, I had my one month blood test and my blood platelets are lower again 104!

Thank you
I feel encouraged now to insist on
steroids
if there is any question when I see the rheumatologist on Thursday. I will absolutely continue to follow these feeds and will report back my (hopefully) progress. This is the most positive I have felt in months so…..THANKYOU

advice re knee pain.
Feel quite disheartened as was hoping knee just needed
steroids
or a brace, and quickly get on my feet again. I’m currently housebound, and unable to even stand in kitchen long enough to even make a coffee. Will my mobility recover?

Rituximab adverse reaction to pre-meds
Dose 1 - I was in hospital and already taking
steroids
(predisnolone) so believe I was not given the same pre-meds if any. I was still a bit delerious at that point so not really 100% sure what was happening.

Newly diagnosed
I am beginning to feel the
steroids
are starting to manage this condition more effectively, so I’m beginning to slowly reactivate and try out activities I used to take for granted but do them on a smaller, more careful scale.

Happening all over again
I am on
steroids
, aspirin, clexane, Prolutex and utrogestan. What is wrong with me and where on earth do I go from here? Pretty much losing my mind at this point. Should say also it’s double donor embryo due to issues on both sides. Xx

Best Vit K2 +Vit D3?
I took
steroids
for years for RA, and early menopause, now my spine and hips are not in great shape. I realise that I really need to sort myself out - no help from GP sadly. Thank you x

Prednisolone and Omeprazole
I am now on 3mg
steroids
but have been getting a lot of tummy upsets and wondered if the long term use of Omeprazole is causing it. I have gone Lactose and Gluten free as well and does not seem to have helped. It says on leaflet should be only taken for short term because of side effects.

Queasiness from Ozempic
As a result of taking
steroids
for PMR, my prediabetes became diabetes. After that and vacations where I overdid it, my A1c. soared to 8. Doc put me on Ozempic. If this chain of events has occurred to anyone else, how do you deal with the nausea? I get sick to my stomach every time I eat.

What next?
So glad we got away for 10 days and had the
steroids
to keep it at bay during that time.

Going to start prednisolone steroids 😳
hi, I’m taking Cortiment
steroids
which worked for the first 2.5 months but the last 2 months I have been getting bouts of diarrhoea. Therefore, i am now going to try prednisone! Hopefully it will work for me then I will start the Adalimumab injections.

Cortisol levels
The rheumatologist was bit downbeat about that result saying he was hoping for 450 plus, and also saying that it 'might come back' but also seemed to be preparing me to remain on
steroids
long-term.
