Do the benefits outweigh he risks? In your case no.  Complications would be life threatening.  Safety first.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

There are a number of factors involved in the decision making process here.  Other comorbidities and overall general health along with current steroid dose are all factors.  This would involve evaluation and consideration of your case with your rheumatologist.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
