Hey Tiffany!

Sounds like some things are going your way! Yeah on the ESR and CRP. That's really important to know that your inflammation levels are in normal range. My doc. told me that high cholesterol can come from steriod use. I assume that it will go back to normal once you are off the steriods for awhile. I have never had high cholesterol in my life and now I do since being on steroids.

I am so glad that you are so close to being off the steriods. I did something really dumb. I went from 4 mgs to 2 mgs. My doc. thought I could handle it. Whoa! I am in h--l right now. I feel awful! It's day 4 and I usually start feeling better after day 4 of a reduction, but this time I really feel bad. I didn't want to go back up because I figured I had suffered for 3 days already why go back. I am just going to try and tough it out. I itch all over. I am nauseated terribly. I am dizzy. I am sooo tired. I am really weak. I know I am crazy, but I want off this stuff. I haven't passed out yet,so I guess I am going to be alright.

I keep praying for you! I know that it won't be long and you will be done with this chapter of your life. Praise God!!!

Keep on keeping on!!

Love you lots!

Karen
