On Monday SP finished up the oral steroids.
Two months on steroids brought about:
*10 lbs of weight gain
*Cheeks to rival a chipmunk
*Emotional outbursts, crying, screaming, self harming (hitting)
*increased body hair
those are all the negatives
The positive- the inflammation is gone! the disease is quiet!
very, very thankful for that! This makes 2 good appointments in a row.
We are hoping once the steroids are completely gone, our sweet little girl will come back, leaving the highly emotionally charged roid rage one far, far behind.
And hopefully those poor cheeks go down too ;)
