    Hi Elizabeth,  You did not finish your message so I cannot answer.  Do let us know what you wanted to know.  I am sure one of us can help you.  We all have different reactions to surgery.  Some of us take steroids like me 4 years after my op but others do not take steroids at all.  I have a friend who has 3 years on without Steroids been put on higher growth hormone which is making her feel better.  Let us know.
