Eye bleed and blurred vision
The Opthamologist doesn't believe in
prednisone
and wants me off of it because I've been on it since 2011. I am so afraid of losing my sight and don't know what to do. The first Optha-Nuerologist (I have had 2) I had said that I would likely be on 20 mg of
prednisone
for the rest of my life.

PMR under control?
this is something I think I should have known already… Is my PMR under control with my
prednisone
dosage if every morning I am achy in my neck, shoulders, sides, and bum for at least an hour or two? II want to taper again but want to be sure I am good to do that.

Moods while tapering/sadness and also so cold all the time!
Have others experienced depression when lowering
prednisone
dose? I am so sad since I tapered to 7.0 mg
prednisone
. The pain is absent but I am just tired, sad, and lack energy. I am also so cold all the time! Is this normal?

Night Sweats and Tapering
Does anyone know what goes on in the body to cause night sweats while tapering down
Prednisone
? I'm not concerned, just curious to know what my body is thinking. I am going from 3.5 to 3 mg and last night woke up with my pajamas completely soaked.

RA with Sjorgrens
I was asked to wean off
prednisone
and ibuprofen for the ultrasound of my wrist yesterday, which I did. Uncertain of the results yet but need it to show some inflammation for my dear old insurance company.

Alternating between 3 and 4 mg pred now
I was wondering when the hand surgeon October 4th appointment, if he will do the tendon operation. and If that will relieve that neuropathy feeling or if the
prednisone
has caused the neuropathy, see I am an insulin dependent diabetic.

Endo is recommending radioactive iodine
I've heard a short course of
prednisone
helps in preventing the development of TED. But by how much? Safety: my partner is severely immunocompromised. The leaflet says to keep away for 14 days after RAI treatment. But it also says stay away for 24 days if in close proximity with someone.

Saw the Rheumatologist, went well, Metoprolol update, and I have trigger finger
He mentioned Methotrexate but use has to be on how I manage reducing
prednisone
first successfully or not. The Metoprolol I quit taking few weeks ago solved my knee pains and honestly the shoulder and hip pain has not returned.

Some hopeful test news:🙏🏻
He’s been on generic Zytiga and
prednisone
and Lupron and finished six weeks of IMRT. Three months after the IMRT his PSA dropped to .07 and now it’s .01. We all live from test to test and I just hope and pray the good news keeps coming. He’s only 50 years old and he’ll be 51 in August.

hypothyroidism
Just diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism, probably from the
prednisone
. Anybody else have that? How do you manage it? What sort of symptoms do you have? My main one seems to be fatigue. Thanks

The search for reasons
PMR symptoms minimal, weight lose steady since I stopped taking

Introduction
Spent a week in pain until doctor diagnosed PMR and put me on
Prednisone
. For the past year my pain is tolerable but not gone. Five months ago my rheumatologist started me on Hydroxychloroquine and continued a slow schedule of weaning me off
Prednisone
.

what I learned while decreasing prednisone
I have been decreasing my
prednisone
using the slow method for about 7 months. I have gone from 17 mg to 10&1/2 mgs. During this time I have learned that
prednisone
does not stay in my system for a long time.

missed the diagnosis?
Whenever I was given
prednisone
, I felt just great. Every time! Even when I had the horrible Chemo, they gave me steroids and I would feel great for a day or two. I had a neck flare a few months ago and the urgent care doc put me on a dose pack and then on 5 mg
prednisone
.

PMR symptoms
Is it possible that starting the
Prednisone
then stopping suddenly provoked symptoms for PMR? Thanks.
