Hello again @mhi. I don't have cdiff, and have had MRI and CT scans recently. My GI would like to do a colonoscopy but wants me to be stable first. I have Giant Cell Arteritis, have had recent blood clots, etc, as well as the many GI issues. I'm 85 years old, although young for my age, I'm always told! lol. My GI has me on a water/Metamucil/Lax-a-Day protocol which I've explained in earlier posts, and he'll phone me in a month to see how I'm doing. I've had persistent diarrhea since last summer.
I'm not concerned about gaining weight, just concerned whether losing 21 lbs. since mid-November is the result of stopping Prednisone, or if it's something more ominous. I was hoping to hear from any members with similar weight-loss after Prednisone to hear whether that much loss was sometimes experienced after stopping Prednisone. I'll soon know more from my GI's investigations, but just wondering...!
Thanks so much for your reply, and you are in my thoughts as you work toward a healthy weight gain! Warmest wishes, Laurie
