Could steroid diabetes attenuate potential (desired) weight gain in an enteropathy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Steroid": diabetes is usually a simple elevation or blood sugars and is seldom very "symptomatic" What sugar is lost via the urine is "balanced" by the weight gain associated with the steroids themselves! Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
