I was on steriods for 20 weeks, tapering every 2 weeks. It was long, exhausting. I did have some relief for a few months with no pain. My wounds did take longer to heal...but I was pain free. I would get abcess here and there. When I was finishing my dosage, more abcesses appeared...significantly smalled than the beginning abcesses. I changed my diet and finally fully recovered. I was "sick" for 14 months. The average case is 18 months.
Hi,
Hope you are fully recovered now. Pls let me know what's your change in Plan.
Hi there! Since the steroid burst I have been healing with natural remedies; taking turmeric through my naturopath doctor, taking other supplements as well, also changed my diet and I'm following the PALEO diet. What I believe has helped me a lot as well is acupuncture (chinese healing treatment). There are specific points/channels in acupuncture for treating breast abscesses! Since doing these things, I have been pain free since June (4 months), I feel very normal now, my mass is shrinking, my wounds are healing and shrinking too. I noticed that if I stop following my PALEO diet, and stop acupuncture, abscesses start coming back.
I'm 9 months into GM and I feel great about the path I'm on and I pray everyone is on their way to healing.
