Is it a reversible phenomenon on stopping of medication.
Brief Answer:
If stopped soon.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
If Wysolone is used only for small period say for a week or two this all will get back to normal within a few weeks.
But if the steroids are continued for long then it would be difficult to reverse the weight gain easily.
