Hi Esther,
If you want to ski you have to get off ths drug. It is going to make you weaker and weaker. I hate decadron and would opt for surgery if the other option was to be on decadron longer than a few weeks. They should have given you a stong antiacid to counteract the job decadron does on the stomach. I would call your surgeon or whomever is in charge of your treatment. I am not usually demanding, but I became demanding the last time I had to take this drug. I insisted on being weaned as soon as possible.
Good luck,
Barbara H.
