Is this Adrenal Insufficiency ???
Hello wise people , Looking for your thoughts please , I see my Rheumatologist in 3 days and I think he may want to change my current 5 mg Prednisolone or even add something in . I feel reasonably well informed and have no issue with pushing for his rationale behind his thoughts . I can’t really

Depression as side effect of long term prednisone use?
I’m at the 6 and a half year mark for PMR. Currently at 2. Have been struggling with lower energy and feeling blah for weeks. I see my Dr next month and will discuss adrenal insufficiency. But I just read heard on the Prednisone Pharmacist you tube channel that long term use can cause depression. Does

Helpful you tube channel
prednisone pharmacist is a you tube channel I found yesterday. She is on the medication herself. Thought I’d pass on the info as this community has helped me so much. She also sells supplements.. know nothing about that part

Lumbosacral plexopathy - Pain returning after steroid treatment
So further to my previous post on this subject, and I can't find much else on HU about this particular problem, but here's where I am now.....I've just finished a 4-week course of Prednisolone to calm down the inflammation. It really helped to be honest by heck I've had the munchies, knackered but wired

From a Gleason 9 to a clean CT scan in 18 mos.
18 mos ago, my husband was told by his dr. that he "most likely had two or three good years left." (WHY do they say stupid things like that?) I think that a lot of people believe whatever the dr. says and subconsciously program themselves accordingly. I, on the other hand, thought to myself, "We'll

GCA Worries
Hopefully you’ll recall that 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with GCA and put on 60 mg. Prednisone after a positive temporary biopsy. My vision has been ok, except the last couple of days I’m having a strange phenomenon. It seems my eyes are having trouble focusing at a distance. Up close is fine, and if

Glad I did I was sent straight to hospital with a letter to be seen immediately by a rheumatologist. My CRP was 139 and I was started on

Tapering
Might be a silly question, so apologies if it is, when slowly reducing prednisolone,are the adrenals being asked “to join the party” and if they aren’t, is that when you can get some feelings of fatigue etc while you wait for them to wake up. Is that why we taper slowly to give them time?

headache in middle of forehead.

Since that time, I’ve had a headache that comes and goes in the middle of my forehead between my eyebrows The root canal dentist prescribed an antibiotic to rule out a sinus problem resulting from the procedure, but I was also checked out by a neuro

Pain a week after starting taper
I started tapering from 8 mg every other day to 7 about ten days ago and now my shoulder hurts at night and morning. Depressing. It's easy to have the illusion one is getting better when in fact it's the prednisone working.

Stiff and painful neck, a flare?
I’ve had a stiff and painful neck for the last 3,4 days. Turning my head to the left or right causes pain, also lying down. It feels like it’s my neck muscles but not sure what’s going on or if it’s a flare. Also a big increase in tinnitus and very fatigued. With other flares I’ve had pain
