Update on Steroid Therapy

- Posted in The Journey by

Hello All,

I am on day 2 of my steroid treatment to try and shut down the overactive immune system I now have from the immunotherapy.

While I have not yet gained the water weight (oh, it will come... lol) I have found myself with little to no pain since starting the therapy.

This leads me to believe that the abdominal pains I was suffering through were probably a result of the immunotherapy, and now that my immune system is settling down a bit, the pain has seemingly gone away.

Other symptoms of the immunotherapy also seem to be weening down, or gone.

The gold marker for me will be to see if my creatinine levels come down now as well. We will have those test results next Tuesday (the 27th).
