I am on steroids as well for another eye condition. Also tapering, almost stopped now. I also gained weight. I did loose a lot of weight before though, because of the pain and stress. Now I am feeling better and probably my body needs less energy hence the weight gain.

Hello. Did you take the steroids as eye drops?? If so, how much? Curious about the weight gain...do you think it's from the steroids that enhance appetite??? I think that even eye drops are absorbed into the blood stream!!! What eye condition are you treating?? The steroids have been prescribed for me to perhaps help the blurring I have after cataract surgery.. (not really helping). Thanks
