Different drug companies
Not sure why I always feel some unease when my Prednisolone comes from a different company than my norm. My pharmacist invariably gives me my 5mg Prednisolone from Accord. Lately there have been a few different companies and today the packaging was from RelonChem. Never heard of this drug company

Drugs make it worse?
I had the loveliest day yesterday, no hint of a-fib, lots of walking, not tired at all. Then at bedtime, when I prepare pills for the next day, I discovered I'd forgotten to take all my meds. Today, I took them as usual, went into a-fib, exercised my way out of it, still feel very tired. Tomorrow I'm

From pred to methotrexate.
I'm slowly dropping my prednisolone, and currently taking 20mg methotrexate. When I drop pred completely, with I still have weight issues on the meth? Any ideas?

Adrenal function at the lower doses of pred
Hi, I am down to 2mg of Prednisolone and am feeling a bit anxious about the next reduction . The worst I felt was at Christmas when I think I was reducing from around 7 mg to 6. For those of us lucky enough to get down to 2mg does it mean that the adrenals must be firing up/ working reasonably well?

hair loss
hi I’m a 74 year old female and I’m experiencing fairly severe hair loss I think due to prednisone. I’m thinking of trying hair growth products. Any recommendations?

100% pain free
I was diagnosed 6 years ago and prescribed 15mg of prednisolone. I was never 100% pain free, maybe 90%. Am I damaging my body by tapering when only 90%pain free. Aslong as I am 90% pain free I am happy to do my slow taper. Thoughts please

Is codeine ok with prednisolone.
Foolishly went mad digging garden couple of weeks ago and upset my back....past slipped disc. Seeing pysio and doing all the right things and keeping pain killers to a minimum as even the paracetamol make me feel strange, light headed and upset digestive system. I am on omeprazole. Would codeine be a

Another auto immune condition: Lichen sclerosus
I'm in shock. I've just been diagnosed with another auto-immune condition, just as my PMR seems under control. I was diagnosed with PMR in April 2019, and with a few flares I'm now on 4.5mg prednisone. Lichen sclerosus is an unpleasant condition, mostly post-menopausal women, no known cure, just topical

Mixing Prednisolone and Prednisona
Hi all. I have a question about the Prednisona steroid tablets that I have been prescribed in Spain and the Prednisolone steroid tablets that I am prescribed in the UK. I have been assuming that both these medications are one and the same and have been mixing them both. Is it alright or me to do this

Not PMR but RA
My Rheumatologist said I do not have pmr but ra based on all signs like hand cramps and thighs pain when I first get up. Insists the prednisone is not necessary and wants be to keep reducing by 2.5 mg a week from 17.5 where I am now. Started me slow on SSZ yesterday (500mg) and eventually will go

Diarrhea and sickness
Hi just looking for advice or suggestions please. I got diarrhoea and sickness in the early hours of Thursday morning. The sickness lasted 17 hours but I still have bad diarrhoea. I took something to help stop it but it's had very limited affect. I doubled my prednisolone yesterday, and will do so

increasing pred for flares...what next?
I've been moving along on 2mg prednisone for the past two months . I had a few health issues in addition to grieving the loss of my spouse . All this gradually increased my inflammation until i was in pain and stiff. I added 5mg extra to the 2mg for the past 5 days. I'm feeling a bit better. How long

curious!
Good morning! I am doing so well on prednisone 6mg. I can’t believe the difference after being tapered too quickly and being on only Advil. I have latent TB and have to start a medication for that for 4 months. Apparently, this med will decrease the effects of prednisone! Ugh! Any thoughts?

Update on my father
I just wanted to post a quick update on my father. He has metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. He’s been on ADT - Eligard shots every 3 months and prednisone + zytiga everyday. It’s challenging as I work with him and see all the ins and outs of his behaviour while on those meds. He remains

Advice for future treatment of GCA /LVV
I wrote last week to say I had to have urgent PET scan as ESR 49 and CRP 10. Also letter said true iron deficiency. I expect to hear from consultant early next week, but as there is a “ difficult lead consultant who I dislike I want to be prepared….” I am on two and a half prednisolone daily

What happens if Prednisone isn't taken for PMR?
I'm at what seems like a familiar dilemma for Autoimmune conditions: Diagnostic overlap, and treatment plans. For me the crossroads now is: diagnosis (PMR vs RA or both) and treatment plan (Prednisone, and or Plaquenil or?) I had PMR, and was on Prednisone (started at 60 m down to 0 ) for 1 1/2
