Medrol

Hello doc,
I had a small bold patch for over 6 months in my scalp, the last two months went a little bigger.It is still small like 1 euro.My dermatologist gave me a treatment which consists of 24mg of Medrol tapered down for 1 month + a topical cortisone cream.As far as training goes, after a 3 month layoff due to life, I am at the 8th week of the beginner template and things were going pretty well.Should i change anything in training when i start the treatment?Also, i am eating for 3 weeks around 2300 calories and my weight went down slowly from 69 to 68kg.I would like to maintain around 68 to 70 kg of body weight for now.Will I need to cut calories with the start of the treatment?Moreover, there is the component of external stress due to catastrophizing of losing all my hair :smile: .I am trying to manage this.

I wouldn’t change anything about programming due to being on this medicine, and I wouldn’t expect you to need to reduce your calories if you’re already tracking them.
