Dianna S, steroid-induced bio |
|
I am a 65 year old retired school teacher who has been on steroids for 26 years for Polymyositis. I have had cushing's for most of that time.
I now have steroid myapothy and they are trying to get me off the steroids. My problem is as we try to go down my cortisol levels drop and I feel dead. We then increase the steroids and start again. Even when the cortisol levels are low I still look cushionoid. I retired last year and now I have time to research this condition. I am hoping this site will educate me.

You've saved so many lives by your efforts and caring! Thank you so much! I hope you have a wonderful birthday and get to do something special and fun! "
