Steroid treatment: I can’t bolus fast enough

Unfortunately we all vary. This has been discussed before and people were all over the place in how long or how much it affected them. For me it lasts about 3 days for even a small oral dose, I’m talking 5 mg and I’ll go up over 300 Bg and it’s stubborn to come back down. When I had to get a steroid shot for an allergic response I asked for the bare minimum and I think it took about 3 days for that too. But I have heard it bothering some people for a couple of weeks. It gets scary because of the amount I had to use and then you don’t know when you are going to be “normal” again and drop too much.
