Hi. You have no actual idea what you are talking about, and yes, there are definitely major, fast, and terrifying effects of high doseage steroids. I gained 55 in 3 months and I didn’t eat wildly (which is hard to do when you are very hungry, can’t sleep, and slightly unhinged). I even tried to slow it down and…

Also 55 lbs in 3 months. High five! I felt my skin stretch. My dose was so high for so long that i got the Quasimodo neck hump.

Sounds like you got the full ride, there! So sorry!

I think you raise some very good points here. We do seem to be having a number of different discussions, most of which seem to skirt the main issue.

Thanks, yes, much better. :)

This needs more stars! I haven’t laughed so hard since yesterday’s baby elephant video. Ang cute mo!

Yes, Prednisone sucks. I occasionally have to take it for my asthma. Freaking hate it.

Oh man. 90 mg daily of prednisone that had to be tapered off over 10 months 5 mg at a time. But I’m not blind! I gained 55 lbs in 2 months. It was terrifying to experience, but I would just look at myself in the mirror and try to remember I might not be able to do that but for steroids.

Prednisone kid here too, and I know those feels. :( <3

Holy water retention that is not a good sign. I hope you’re doing okay now.

For sure, it’s always a great idea to count blessings.

You are welcome.

No idea what happened. Prednisone is bizarre.

she has the most amazing knack for being exactly fucking right

OMG OMG LINDY! Yes, nails it.

I watched it via watching response videos and felt nauseous the rest of the day.

So sorry, honey. PCOS sucks big-time.

I rarely say this about people. But she deserves all the bad karma that is heading her way right now. That video was so mean and vicious, it actually made me cry. I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. And like so many women with the disease, I struggle with my weight. It’s like I woke up in a different body. I went from…
