Life after steroid means Azacol according to our Doctor….should he take > this whilst on the diet…the book tells us to continue.What do you > think?
Start the diet and by the time you can ween the drugs he won’t need them anyway. Get him off of those ASAP or he’ll be sorry when he’s old. My grandmother has taken steroids for 40 years and they have completely destroyed her immune system, cuts and bruises just never heal. Her skin is destoyed. Trust me, it’s miserable. SCD may not “cure” (or it may) but it will definately make life easily livable. The roughest part is eating out with friends, pretty limited menu choices (I usually eat omlettes or fish or fruit while out). > Of course our sons welfare is paramount in our thinking…we are new to > this & finding it a very scary thing to deal with.We full of doubt & guilt > about it.A little help would be appreciated. > Our hearts go out to all of you. > Thanks > Claudette & Stephen > (notlob55@neca.com) Date: Fri, 04 Sep 1998 15:47:39 -0600 From: Partridge
