Acute pericarditis following 1 high steroid dose.
Since then nothing until now. 2 days ago I was prescribed a high dose of prednisone
steroids
(60mg per day) for an unrelated ear condition (noise induced tinnitus).

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

GCA/PMR and spa treatments
My question is with regards to getting massage while on
steroids
and while having GCA/PMR as my mum got a spa voucher for my sister and I and herself at Christmas. The SPA are aware my mums on long term
steroids
but I am still a bit concerned about what treatments it's safe for my mum to get.

High blood pressure
Could the
steroids
be a contributing factor? Also is this something I should bring to my rheumatology teams notice? Thank you 😊 Mel

Tattoo /steroids
My rheumatologist mentioned I might need steroid injections into my feet/toes specifically (guided by ultrasound). I have a large foot tattoo (well, I have fairly small feet but tattoo is across a fairly large proportion). She said they'd inject just beside it. I'm quite anxious about damaging my tattoo

Vitamin K2
I take methotrexate,
steroids
and other meds so I don’t want the strongest K2 but one I can absorb without a problem. I have been on risedronate for two years but dexa scan had not improved. I try and walk a little and have stairs in house. Thank you. J

Diet and arthritis
I have now successfully tapered off my
steroids
and I am feeling much better and more like my old self. I am not eating wheat or pork. You don't have to buy the book, though it is an interesting read.

Low carbs
Also for those who’s hair has been affected with
steroids
I invested in a hair topper from a good wig salon. It’s amazing how much more confidence it gives you when your hair looks lovely. My hair has broken off all over. The topper is a game changer for me and it looks so natural.

Coughing again ...
Really don't want
steroids
again as they give me heartburn and an increased heart rate and am wondering if it is actually asthma or something else? Any advice gratefully received ...

GCA & polymyalgia rheumatica
All medical attention has been focussed on
steroids
& methotrexate etc. throughout. Now, at the age of 75 I am finding that the severe limiting effects of the polymyalgia is even more life limiting than GCA. Has anyone else found this? Is there any real help out there?

Not believed
I felt awful over Xmas and my rheumatologist put me on
steroids
. I then got pneumonia again and was on 2 more weeks of
steroids
. When I come off
steroids
all my symptoms flare and my hand swelled up again. The GP then put me on more
steroids

STUCK IN A PRED RUT
I am having nose bleeds and the ENT Consultant has told me to ‘get off’ the
steroids
. I have for the last 10 days 1/4mg daily reduction. It has been agony. Shoulder and upper leg pain, brain fog and feeling tired and unwell. I don’t know what to do.
