How To Control Weight While Undergoing Treatment.
I take 20mg of Dexamethazone twice per week.
It is rough on dexymethasone not to eat cause I ate everything in site. Best to keep foods on hand that are healthy not sugary or processed snacks like nuts almonds pumpkin seeds carrot sticks celery sticks strawberries dried fruits like cranberries.
Cook beans and greens okra fill up on these type foods and get back to the basics of life definitely no fast foods if you can help it.
You will feel a lot better too!!!
Donnie, will you eventually get to lower your dexamethasone dose? It would be very hard not to gain weight on that much dexamethasone. I would have to restrict my carbohydrates and walk as much as possible. Be kind to yourself. I think it's impossible not to gain weight on that much dexamethasone.
Keep up the good work I liked dexymethasone it is a multiple myeloma killer and it made my pain leave and I really felt healed but the only problem is they can only give you so much of it. It does keep you awake for many hours too.
The Dexamethazone is a part of the cancer treatment itself. In spite of the Dex, if I follow the Noom app that I use, I'm able to control the weight. The cravings are my biggest obstacle.
Usually who with the sickness are losing weight. But you is gaining weight that surprise me 👍
