The steroids possibly will raise blood sugar...so you should monitor that.
Over time they tend to create "weakness" as well. This is because they deplete potassium. So that should be monitored.
Calcium and Vit D are also impaired (and this may affect bone density).
I found this article on the net written by a doctor for his patients, and I posted it on MG forum here. It is really the BEST information written well for patients:

So please do read it. It is not long.
And if this is truly an inflammatory problem for you, I'd consider anti-inflammatory--antioxidant support supplements.
Vit C
Grapeseed extract
R-lipoic acid (stablized form).
And eating antioxidant rich foods...blueberries, strawberries etc.
