Sounds perfectly normal to me! 90% of the time, as soon as you come off them, your appetite will return to normal and you'll begin to lose the weight pretty quickly.

Im on them due to uvieitis, steroids to sort the inflamation and lansoprazole to calm the effects of the steriods. Valganiclour for the infection. Atropene to keep the eye dilated and Prednislonone in eye drop form too.
