Hi all

Not sure when I'll start? I have been on steroids for 2 1/2 yrs and my Dr has been very, very slowly reducing the dose. I appear to be having side effects of coming off them, inc very painful muscle aches, especially arms and hands. Seeing Doc for my monthly appointment so hoping he can help. So at the moment modelling is out of the question. Hopefully the aches and pains will start to ease.

 

[Jim R]

Get better soon Bob. Hopefully the doc. will come up with something.

 

[kacitgirl]

Yeah hopefully that gets sorted out soon

 

[Nicko]

Thanks Nick, me too!

 

[Geoffers]

only just seen your post Bob, hope things improve for you soon

The physical symptoms must be horrible but not being able to do any modelling must be very frustrating too

Picked my victim…

Nice one Tim. I like the look of Tamiya's clean looking box tops.

Many thanks Geoff and Tim, kind words much appreciated

Its dreadful, anything i do brings the aches and pains within 5 mins. Had my monthly blood donation today so Dr tomorrow afternoon. According to the NHS when you start long term roids the kidneys stop producing cortisol, cortisol apparently control muscles etc, so leaving this to roids. When you stop roids the kidneys restart producing cortisol but it takes time to build up, hence the current nasty aches and pains. I'll ask Dr how long and what can be done. Sick off aching all day!

Cheers Joe. Looks crisp in the bags, so it should be a good build.
