Thanks for the heads up. I was hoping for a TKR but had polio as an infant and my quads on that side are too weak to support a replacement. I would be at great risk for being worse. I have a fierce dread of being wheelchair bound so prefer hobbling to any lesser alternative. I always thought corticosteroids were an automatic weight gain but I never had that. Good your limit is now 30. That is a huge improvement and I know it took some effort to get there. It is a tough journey. Take care S.E. M.E.
