Tumtimes1 my number seems just a bit higher that borderline, so I am in intralipids too, well, I don't mind if it is to help me. Thank you for the encouragement and congratulations on your baby and on you pregnancy, what a lovely positive story! How are you feeling, are you by now off all medication or do you still take some of it?
Fourleafclover82 I am right behind you with just over 7 weeks, very glad your scan went well last week, the wait is so nerve-wracking! I am also an '82 girl, if that what you meant by it in you nickname.
5 hour round trip sounds exhausting,it is 3 hours for me and just about as much as I find acceptable, it is tiring. Fingers crossed you can transfer to NHS. My GP is not supportive at all, but is prescribing the cyclogest for me as this was directed by an NHS consultant after my 3rd MC. I am taking Pred from Epsom though, GP wouldn't hear of it.
karryk all my fingers and toes crossed for you- keep us updated. And re the acne, my face cleared up as soon as I started pred, so I can only imagine my face will explode with spots once I am off it!
Cartoontrickster I do feel ravenous at times, but it always comes unexpectedly, one minute I am not hungry, and a minute later I am starved and just have to eat. Trying to manage the eating patterns and put lots of 'good' food in my stomach as I have been having trouble with constipation 
ever since starting prednisolone. Are you seeing DrS on Monday? I am seeing a colleague of his next week, I was told DrS is out of town.
Seekingmiracles thank you for the reassurance, I was an obsessive symptom spotter and I did have very strong early symptoms with my previous pregnancies, from even before the BFP, it is so different this time round, so I hope that's a good sign.
You are right most GPs are not happy about steroid use. I struggled to have him prescribe me cyclogest, even though he received a letter instructing him to do so, from the consultant he sent me to see. I got a right lecture on how cyclogest is very expensive and basically it is a 'treat', not usually given, and he will be prescribing it two weeks at the time instead of 8week supply in one go, in case I miscarry and I don't need all of it, otherwise he would have trouble justifying the prescriptions to his superiors. At just 4 weeks pregnant and very vulnerable I flipped out and broke down crying, so rude and insensitive. He could have just said that it was 2 weeks supply at the time and did not have to elaborate
