The pred seemed to cause my ankles and feet to swell. It started soon after I started pred in my left ankle.
Swollen feet and ankles has been an intermittent problem for me since I started pred in July 2017, occurring every few months. I never suffered it before taking pred. I'm currently going through a spell of it after a long time without any swelling. This does make me wonder if the hot weather also plays a part.
I found these were good when I had swollen ankles earlier this year. This was just before the onset of PMR. I am now on a diuretic every other day which has fixed the problem. amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08...
My GP said I should not take a diuretic if I am taking steroids.
