Avatar f tn ve been given a steroid injection and prednisone and have gotten a headache from both. At the time I do have high bp and have side pain from a UTI.
Avatar n tn I had a low fever and my urine was dark brown. I was told I had +3 protein and a UTI. However I had no symptoms whatsoever of a uti when I went in for biopsy. Still have severe RUQ pain worse than before biopsy and am on 40mg prednisone. Dr says it will just take time due to the pleural effusion and fluid. Drs have never seen a case like mine and are having a hard time explaining why this happened. Any ideas anyone? Will this just take time? Still eating blended soups and smoothies.
718939 tn?1353967695 ) Ever since I have had terrible bladder symptoms. Pain and pressure in the bladder, urinary frequency, urinary hesitancy, and stopping and starting. I can only last about 45 min. and I have to use the restroom (but I hardly can go). My pelvic floor muscles are so tight they are like rubber bands and my lower abdomen is quite swollen. I was given Cipro for 4 days and have now started taking Macrobid and am suppose to take it for two months. I am very worried....

4661387 tn?1359415198 Thank you for your response. That makes sense as I have had a chronic antibiotic resistant UTI for the past 8 weeks. I self catheter 100% of the time and I can't seem to shake this UTI and this was the fist time I have ever experienced these symptoms. Thank you so much! Have a fantastic evening!
Avatar f tn t really taken off but there is a huge difference. And now that I have tried the Prednisone and it helped I feel AMAZING! I am a horse trainer, and there is no way I can go out and train horses during the day. I can do very minimal work even still. But it makes me happy and that is the best drug out there!! Your mind set can change everything. My boyfriend has Cystic Fibrosis and he is the same way. It helps to have some one who is going though the same type thing as you.
456970 tn?1287587447 I took my cat to the vet Feb. 2nd because he was making small puddles all over the house and he had thrown up. They said he had a urinary blockage and prescribed him a weeks cycle of prednisone (steroids) as an anti-inflamitory and antibiotics. It cleared up but now I think he's blocked again but we are expecting a new baby and we just can't afford the vet visit. I called the vet and they won't re-prescribe the meds without seeing him.
Avatar f tn Around a month ago I had a new sexual partner and we just used the pull out method which resulted in a very painful UTI and hymen tears. I received a pelvic exam and my doctor told me my cervix looked a little irritated. Would she be able to tell if I was pregnant? Could I be pregnant? I'm very scared because I wouldn't want to keep the baby.
Avatar m tn 4 months ago I began a therapy with prednisone (25 mg per day) and one month lather I got tested for hiv 1-2, the result hopefully was negative and all my blood exams were normal (but antibodies against HBV positive, without virus). My doctors said me that hiv is not a problem for me. However i began to worry again because it was been told me that prednisone is an immunosupressant and I fear that it could hide my hiv antibodies. What do you think about? Sould I have to get another test?
Avatar n tn I would not be concerned about someone taking prednisone having sex and passing it to their partner. Are you allergic to prednisone for why you are asking?
1580703 tn?1651904887 finally they let me out of the nursing home and I went to the ER and they gave me prednisone which helped the dizziness but seems to be terrible for the liver.
Avatar f tn gov/pubmed/114570 Abstract The effect of exogenous prednisone on serum thyrotropin (TSH), thyroxine (T4), and triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations was investigated in four patients with non-functioning thyroid glands receiving T4 replacement therapy. Orally administered prednisone, in a dose of 20 mg each day for nine days, resulted in a significant decrease in mean serum TSH levels (p less than 0.01) without significant changes in levels of serum T4, T3, and thyroxine binding globulin (TBG).
3061629 tn?1405458990 I took prednisone 60mg plus 2 steroid dose packs plus a short acting and long acting steroid injection in the past 6 weeks. I have been off all steroids x 3 weeks and am suffering from weakness, tremors, shaking inside and out, feelings of anxiety, shortness of breath, muscle cramps in my legs and feet and extreme lethargy. I'm thinking this must be an adrenal issue. Has anyone had these symptoms after prednisone? I am so anxious and shaky from mid morning until late afternoon.
Avatar m tn We get many questions about the possibility of medications, and particularly steroid medications like prednisone, interfering with the accuracy of HIV tests. This is rarely a problem.
1580703 tn?1651904887 I started taking milk thistle and charcoal but is there anything I can do to lower my liver levels?
Avatar m tn 1 week later I started to feel poorly with flu symptoms and burning when urinating, I went to the doctor and who took a wee sample and said I had a uti. He then examined me down there and said he thinks I may have herpes and sent me to a GUM clinic to be tested. The doctor at the GUM clinic looked and said it looked nothing like herpes and looks like friction burns, and nothing to swab. I took a course of antibiotics for the uti and it all cleared up after a week.
Avatar f tn I was possibly one of the healthiest people I knew around my family and friends because I rarely got sick, and with rarely I mean about once a year or not even once. If I ever got a cold, flu, or sore throat, it was gone in a week or less. I started working as a nanny for a baby whom his mother warned me had a really weak immune system, meaning he was always sick and could easily get sick. The very first week he seemed a bit sick, but I did not pay attention since I knew I never got sick.
1150481 tn?1270490136 But since my menstruation I have been having my periods like clockwork and y dint it come the first month i tuk prednisone? Please advice if it can cause changes. Now my periods are regular also I have reduced the dose to 7.5mg. I am ttcing for almost 6 months now. I am wondering how long can I be on 7.5mg of prednisone. How long is it safe? considering the horrible side effects.
Avatar f tn Read all the side effects of prednisone, it might be that it is related to the prednisone or prednisone is causing the water retension to be worse... just a thought. Keep us posted of your experience ok?? It might be helpful for all of us that have AIH for future reference and to compare our experiences. Best Wishes!
902019 tn?1249861414 Maxing out at 200mg per day of Imuran with 400mg hydroxychloroquine and 60mg prednisone was of no use for me. Addition of rituximab induced a 14 month remission. I think Imuran works for some people and not others. Even at 200mg Imuran, I noticed no side effects.
Avatar m tn On the way out I talked to a lady there and I told her I was bipoler and was on prednisone for joint pain. She told me that prednisone can bring on a psychotic phase in normal people and with a pre-existing condition it can be really ugly. Has anyone ever heard of such a thing?
Avatar n tn Short term low doses of Prednisone is not harmful unless you already suffer from emotional instability. If your eyesight gets blurry and/or you feel emotionally distressed while taking Prednisone contact your doctor immediately.
Avatar m tn I have been sick and my doctor ordered me to take a regiment of medication being prednisone, doxycycline and furosemide. I have been on the prednisone for 2 weeks now and he has ordered me to take 5 mg every 8 hours (he gave me 80 pills) Would the prednisone effect my HIV results? Thank you.
Avatar n tn My question is, how much prednisone (and for how long) do you prescribe before and after treatment. Do you recommend prednisone for everyone, or only for those with eye disease? My endo said that he thinks the risk of prednisone is greater than the risk of eye disease and doesn't want to prescribe it. I do not feel comfortable with that statement, as eye disease seems much worse to me than short term prednisone.
