| 4 | Rare Blood Disease | Major insomnia while at higher doses, sleep has improved as I start taking less and less; mild acne, puffy face (only happened recently). If you're miserable and hate prednisone, write me. I hate it too. | 50mg's for the first 4 wks, before tapering down 5 mg's per wk - am now at 15mg's. | F | 25 | 2 months 50MG 1X D | 1/16/2012 | |
| 4 | Rare Blood Disease | ** update: stopped taking prednisone couple of months ago, wanted to let everyone know that the side effects DO go away. if you've got the puffy face, once you get under 10mg's it starts to go down and once you're off the meds completely, give the pred a couple weeks to leave your system. i was left with no lasting effects. no weight gain. no acne. ** - stay positive! | F | 26 | 8 months 50MG 1X D | 7/15/2012 | ||
