first i am certainly no heatlh expert, but what you are seeing could be water retention. many drugs make you retain fluid which shows up as extra weight which really isn't the stored kind. I remember being on an antiinflammatory (for a neuroma) and the doctor said don't be surprised if these make you hold on to a few extra pounds of water. Still, water or not, it's still discouraging. If it is water, when you stop the drugs your system should give back the excess fluid too.
Best!
