He is on corticosteriods, an antiinflaitory that is CATABOLIC to muscle. Not anabolic steroids. He blames this on his weight gain but he has had problems with staying thin well before this.

he had a problem with the deflation of his left lung. so the doc's put him on meds that one of the side is heavy weight gain.. I think he said he put on 53 lbs.. but it looks like more..
Yes, prednisone sux - but the effects can be counter acted to an extent - there is no reason for that much of a gain. He is probably holding 50 lbs of excess water.
