I Have A Recent Diagnosis Of Lupus (16 Months). I

I have a recent diagnosis of lupus (16 months). I am on prednisone as well as plaquenil and a monthly infusion of benlysta. I have gained nearly 20 pounds in the last 5 months. My dr decreased the mg of the prednisone from 10-5 but I'm still gaining. I am considering HCG injections. What are the possible side effects?
