I of course had problems with higher doses of pred/ and am still trying to lose some of the wt I gained....am currently on 6 mg a day/
I took methotrexate/ and had hair thinning/ loss. I don't think it effected wt or puffiness/ but who am I to say. The rheumy took me off of it (cold turkey) because of the hair loss/ and i guess it wasn't doing anything for me. I recently started Cellcept/ and I have a feeling it might help.
What is helping me is PT/ 2X a week. I would have your puffiness checked out/ could be kidney or blood pressure problems/ or ? keep us posted. trurose |
