Back from the doctors

[Rising Phoenix]

I have an infection from being on the Prednisone so long. The prednisone lowered my immune system, thus making me suseptiable to infection, particularly where I was already sick. Hence it showed up as an infection that revealed itself as a rash under my arms again. Still allergic to the deorderant, but this rash is not caused by that.....Nor is it anything a month of pills (not steroids) won't cure.....:woohoo: So I am still itchy but releived to have a diagnosis. Thank you all for caring so much. :loveya:

I"m treating myself to a vacation once I"m off the pills in a month and when I come back there will be big surprises

7. Yup Prednisone is the root of all evil.

I've been on it for 14+ years (anti-rejection for a renal transplant) and it gave me a cataract and deteriorated my hip joints when I was only 30. You're lucky to be off it.
