Prednisone Quotes

Mack and Denise had been in jail for vampire draining. Deeply upset, I nevertheless automatically carried a pitcher of beer and some glasses to a raucous table of four.

Needless to say, elderly people taking steroids may also experience the same side effects as younger persons. So, if you are a senior and need to be on a long course of steroids, what should you do? We would suggest a practical approach—which could apply to anyone on steroids, regardless of age, but may be particularly relevant for seniors because they are particularly vulnerable to side effects: • Understand and verify the need for steroids in your own situation, weighing the anticipated benefit with the possible risks. This means that you should explore the range of other treatments that may be available for your particular condition. You need to learn about the benefits and risks of any other treatment suggested. In other words, get all the information you can prior to going on treatment, be it with steroids or other medications. • Be sure that your health is well-assessed before or at the start of therapy. If you have underlying, separate health conditions, those should be noted and followed while you are on steroids. • Assess bodily systems that might particularly be affected by being on steroids. This means an assessment of your skeletal health, your eyes, your teeth, and your internal organs. • Request guidance about staying active. Physical therapy should be planned, to minimize the chances that your muscles and joints will be overtaxed or that any existing damage might get worse. • Ask to reassess the length and dose of your medication course at various intervals. A reasonable interval is every couple of months, if you are on a long course of steroids.

In fact, gaining as little as ten pounds over a fifteen-year period can cause insulin resistance to double.

Je bent inderdaad lelijk,’ je bent kaal van de chemo en je wangen staan bol van de prednison'. Ik vind deze citaat uit het boek heel kwetsend overkomen. Zeker naar de mensen toe die te maken hebben met kanker of een persoon hebben verloren aan kanker. Het wilt niet zeggen omdat je kanker hebt dat je lelijker bent in tegendeel het maakt je als persoon juist zo veel mooier en sterker. Maar ik vind het goed van de auteur dat ze deze citaat heeft verwerkt in haar boek. Het doet mensen dieper nadenken over deze zin en namelijk hoe kwetsend dit soms kan overkomen. Want kanker is nu eenmaal een ziekte waar je respect en liefde moet voor tonen voor de mensen die hier aan lijden. " ik zie je tussen de wolken" Ik vind dit een heel mooie en doordachte citaat.
