I am glad to help!! Do you take anything for the migraines? I can't take any of the prescription meds since I have a fast heart rate, but I do drink regular coca-cola when the headaches hit and it seems to help a bit.

It is a great sign that you are not gaining weight anymore! It can take a few weeks to start seeing the pounds come off...it usually takes about a month before I see a real drop in weight, but I have been on them non-stop for 2 yrs now and on and off them for 4 yrs before that. Please keep in mind that 1 week is not a long time to be off of steroids, especially when high doses are involved, so be kind to yourself!!! :) Your body needs some time to rest and adjust to the drop. I know how hard that is!!! Just keep reminding yourself that any break in the steroid is a good break...even if it hurts.

Lots of hugs your way!

Ivy :)
