Katharine seems to be doing better on a longer course of steroids. We did ten days of two; then five of one; then every other day of one; now every other day of 1/2 for five days; then we will do 1/4 every three days until the supply runs out. Meanwhile, despite less steroids, she is eating well. The first time this summer when we did steroids for IBD, she didn't eat as much as soon as we stopped giving the med twice a day; and then stopped altogether when we finished the course. And she's gained weight-back on a diet! She's 11.6 up from 10 lbs in June.
