I have to tell you I was afraid of this medicine after I read all the aboves stories but I am here to tell you that I do not have any of those systems. I have been on it for two weeks and am taking 20MG a day. Please don't be afraid it works different for all. Good Luck.

This is such a difficult drug for me. My body seems to react differently every time. It usually does wonders for my asthma but will make me stay awake for over 50 hours at a time and really interferes with my regular routine.

The blisters will go away while taking the medicine but they always return when the medicine is gone and the pain is worse. The doctor does not know what the problem is or how to cure it I have been to three doctors and they all still do not know what the problem is, all test come back negitive, no infection or disease. But I do not want to be on this medicine the rest of my life.

First of all, I took prednisone for an extended period. The symptoms I had were: weight gain (about 25-30 pounds), round face, acne, and terrible mood swings. I hated every minute of being on this drug.

I am allergic to neoprene & found out the hard way. I had a horrible allergic reaction and had to be taken to the hospital. The doctor prescribed a cycle of Prednisone. While it helped to cure my allergic reaction, I really suffered from side effects: weight gain, sleep loss, and major irritibility. While it did what I needed it to do, I felt horrible while on it.
