[QUOTE=tkrik;789602]I don't know the answer to your question. I was part of a study once and I had to take 1 gm (1,000 mg) for 5 days every 3 or 4 months. So, that's between 15,000 mg to 20,0 00 mg in a year.
You can always check with your neuro and see. There are risks with taking so much steriods that I would definitely ask.
I have a dog who overproduces a steroidal hormone in her body, and I have to use a chemo pill on her but it works. If I didn't she would have easily died 3 years ago and she is still running and playing.
The one good thing about the practice I go do is they have a lot of doctors and everything is computerized, so they all have access to all my records. But my neuro appt isn't for another month, and I was just wondering if someone knew how much steroids could be given within a year.
Thanks for your answers.
Cathy
