Ok ,thanks for the rapid response,much appreciated .I have been taking ibuprofen everyday so will ease of now for next week to see if I am in the 20% and will contact you again.
Sounds as though you might be part of the 20% or so that do not really respond to steroids. I would probably give it another week just in case there is a late response and then we will have to decide whether to try a second dose of steroids or to go for surgery. JB
