You're preaching to the choir, Dierdra. My friend lives on grains. Cereal for breakfast, bagels for snacks, sandwiches for lunch, and pasta for dinner. She's the type, however, who won't question her doctor. "He knows what's best for me." She's said, though, that she won't do prednisone again. I asked her what she thought he was going to do for her that didn't involve prednisone. I'm really trying to get her to see a different doctor. That stuff is ruining her health. And by "stuff" I mean BOTH the prednisone and the grains!
