sooo if i didn't have hyper-kyphosis/scoliosis before being admitted into the hospital. i definitely do now.. mega dose of solu-medrol for 10 straight days, 3 times a day. wish i would have read about steroids on bone mineral density before they bombed my immune system. there crazy.
umm disclaimer: i understand im not asking qualified health professionals for their opinion (maybe some of you are). consider this a conversation between friends?
