Hi everyone,
I'm new here and this is my first post - so hope I'm getting this right!
I'd like some advice and I'm guessing this is a medical post since it relates to medication.
My asthma's been fairly well controlled (not taken more than 125 of seretide and occasional salbutamol) since childhood, but this year it's been a nightmare, and for the first time I've been prescribed a 5day course of 20mg prednisolone. The problem is that I am terrified of weight gain. I should probably mention that I have had an eating disorder in the past and although I'm healthy now, I definitely do not want my weight to be higher than it is now.
What experiences have other people had?
Sorry if this is irrelevant, just not sure where else to get info/support about this.My GP minimised the side effects - she would, knowing my history, because at the end of the day, she wants me to take them!
Thanks!
