I supposed have severe inflammation in my sleeve. I'm 12 days post op. The doc prescribed dexamethasone which is a steroid. I trust my surgeon although all I see is that steroids are bad for us fellow sleevers.. Anyone else take steroids?

Idk, but I wish u a speedy recovery!

The steroid is to rapidily reduce the swelling in your stomach. The benefit outweighs the risk of irritation that nsaids and steroids can cause at this point.

Oh okay thank you!!

I had steroids in my IV while inpatient to help with swelling.
