re: Going off steroids...withdrawal symptoms? Mar. 11th, 2008 7:10pm
about a year ago my former endo tried to decrease my dose from .5 to alternating .5 and .25. It did not go well. I started loosing hair on the top of my head, got more acne, felt faint, and my lip hair got more noticable. For me it was not a good situation and a new endo put me back on .5mg. When I was decreased from .10 to .5 mg, I had no side effects. When I was 14 was taken hydrocortizone, I had not side affects whatsoever. I should also tell that I have had ncah since I was 7. I am not sure if you started dex cause you have cah or are a carrier.
I would watch for differnet changes in your body that are not associated with being pregnant and keep note and make sure you are still getting labs drawn regualry.
