Hello all, it has been a few since the last time I posted here, been trying my best to heal!
I was wondering how many of you all that have been on chronic steroid or had high-dosage shorterm steroids have had, Steriod induced diabetes?
Since my nightmare last year I am trying to find those that are in the catagory like me: if I am on steroids at all I must be on insulin too.
This was very difficult for me, since my medicine team informed me very little as to why these effects caused a person like me with a (at least) healthy pancreas to be in DKA (diabetic-keto-acidois).
I found from later consultations that poor control with this cuased me poor ability to heal.
This is why I ask who suffers from steriod induced diabetes to share there ordeal as well, maybe the community can benifit from understanding how powerful the medications we MUST be on can be and effect our wonderful lives......
