My doctor took a pic of me and compared it to the one he took when I
first saw him. I already knew that my face had swelled up. I gained
15 lbs too. I have to drop it down very slowly to avoid repeating
the severe adrenal suppression again. I am at 6 mg so I'm going to
start taking 5.75 mg for month and then 5.5mg the next. If you think
my way is way to slow. well for me being hypopituitary it may not be
slow enough for all I know.
See my posts last dec about severe adrenal suppression.
