Pleurisy and t3

I’m not long on t3 and I feel like I’m starting pleurisy - I recognise the symptoms as I’ve had it 3 times before. Usually I take anti-inflammatories and steroids (prednisone) to shake it early on but I’ve never been on t3 before. I’m scared that t3 and prednisone might not be a good combination. Help please!

I've had a short course of prednisolone (5 days) and I take T3 with my Levo and I had no problems. Just keep them well away from each other, as with all other medications and supplements.
