Long-term use of steroids also causes bone loss. I hope you get off the

steroids soon--with your doctor's advice.

Well, check out what Dr Shoemaker says about them on those pages to

see if you agree and if circumstances he is referring to apply to

you. Second see Dr Rae or another mold doctor about it. I would hate

to advise you on how to come off of steroids or whether to or not.

However, I think the right away to come off of any medication that has

withdrawal problems is very slowly. I know that is obvious but worth

repeating. The slower you go, the better for your body.

If you decide to do that, I would take things to pump up your immune

system.

If necessary you can have a pharmacy compound drugs to make a dose

lower than you could get by merely cutting your tablets in half, or

taking the lowest dose manufactured by pharmaceutical company. You

may want to arrange for something like that.

very slowly; and you will most likely have withdrawal symptoms....

note: I am no doctor, so check with your doctor first

I've been on & off steroids numerous times for my lungs & skin; longest

time on 8 months. I've always had a hard time coming off them, even

with a slow wean ie: water retention, mood swings, sleeplessness.

Definately agree w/other posts: go very slow & under your dr's

supervision! Could take months to wean off. I wish you well!

Hugs, Cheryl

I've read a few times that medicines are the cause of tissue becomeing

fibrotic, but haven't looked for further info. I wonder where steriod

inhalers would rank on this list.
