Depending on your inflammatory markers an anti-inflammatory diet many not be enough - thus steroids. I was on them for longer than I wanted - but they were successful. I'm facing a few post-steroids problems so the jury is still out on "was it worth it?".
Without getting into details with you, my suggestion would be to talk to your doctor about a plan to get off steroids. Staying on them is not go for you, so working to get off makes sense to see if you can be successful. I do not believe steroids are my friends, in any way, shape or form. They help, true - but they damage also.
