Hi,
After 18 months of surgery, there is no contraindication of steroid intake. But you have to consult your physician for the possible need, dosages and understanding the rest of the side effects which can arise after consuming the steroids before commencing its use.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
