Are you on prednisone for long term therapy ?? I was on it and it caused me to have AVN of my hip.. Its Avascular Necrosis.. Its a 2 edge sword.. I dont want to scare you just know it can cause other problems..
Hi I too have asthma and when ever I do any exercise I have a flareup. I have found that if I take my rescue inhaler before I do any exercise I either don't get a flareup or it is really small. Also I don't do any exercise if my chest is tight in the morning or I am sick at all. Also if you know weather affects you then be aware of that. I can't exercise outside if it is too windy, too hot, or cold. Also exercise isn't all about cardio.
After I lift weights I get sick, during intense lifting I can feel getting sick, like a cold coming on. I have lifted weights since 18 and I am 24. This started two years ago.
Also 2 years ago I was under the assumption I contracted an STD due to my genitals hurting like crazy 3 days after unprotected sex.
First of all I would say it depends on how far u are and not only That but also whether or not u were lifting heavy before pregnancy. It's easy to strain yourself when lifting specially because your balance isn't as good. I'm 120 pounds pretty petite if I lift 50 pounds that's Def not safe lol.
I'm 21yrs old and 9 weeks pregnant. I work for an airline and sometimes lift 50lbs bags at check in. I've heard lifting heavy weight can be bad and lead to miscarriages. However I've also heard that because I have done this job for the past 2 years I should be fine because my body has adapted to it. I told management and they said the only thing they could do is congratulate me...
m really scared - could anyone who has taken this medication for this condition give me any advice? Did it seem to help? How long were you one the prednisone? I'm already obese and am really worried about the weight gain from prednisone. I'm hoping that I won't be on this medication long.
What is the weight limit for lifting when you're 5 weeks??
U could get a hernya or miscarriage lifting so much weight girl!
depends what you are talking about... weight lifting, if you were doing it before you were pregnant then your fine to continue doing what you did at the gym if it still feels comfortable. if you mean things around the house and so on i carry loads of laundry at home up and down are flight of stairs since the beginning im 32 wks now ( no problems) i also have a 4 year old niece i carried early in pregnancy she's probably about 25 or 30 lbs.
After my recovery period, the opthalmologist told me that I could resume normal activity (within reason) and not to take aspirin anymore because it could make me more prone to bleeding and tearing in my retina. For the last several months, I have had to be on prednisone--beginning at 30 mg and now only 10 mg but will be on a low dose for some time.
Weight limits and lifting really depends on your doctor's comfort level. Some say 20lb limit, some say 40. You'll really need to talk to your doctor about your restrictions. Some women are able to do heavier lifting through their pregnancy without any issues, but that's by no means a guarantee. Lifting can put undue strain on your body and abdomen. You want to avoid the stress on your body as in rare instances, it can cause miscarraige or early labor.
I slowly recovered and started feeling better after 60mg IV steroid in hospital for 4 days, then 60mg prednisone daily for about a week after. I was having normal bowel movements and starting get build up the repertoire of foods I was able to eat. I started to taper, and made it down to 40mg prednisone over the next few days, but all of a sudden started having bloody bowel movements (but not pain) again. I have no bloating, and no apparent swelling, but am still bleeding.
The good thing is that once you are off the prednisone, the moon face and weight gain tend to (at least for me) go away pretty quickly. I remember one time, when I went off the prednisone after being on it for almost a year straight, I lost 27 pounds in just two weeks!!! And again, I hadn't changed my eating/exercise habits - it was fluid/weight that I had gained during the course of prednisone.
Help! I'm at my wits end. In November 2008, I had chest pain and thought it was a chest cold. In late December it was still bothering me so I made an appt with my physician. He said it was costochondritus. I was told to take ibuprofen for a few weeks.Didn't help. I was sent for a sonogram of my heart, it was normal. I was sent for chest x-rays, they were normal. I was put on a course of prednisone. Soothed the pain at the higher doses then came back as I weened myself off the prednisone.
I took the medicines couple of weeks longer than I should have. Also, is taking 10 mg of the prednisone for 7 weeks considered taking it long term and high dosage and could it cause permanent side effects like the ones I have? Or are these related to the hypothyroid? I thought all the symptoms would go away with time but it doesn't get any better. Could these be a symptoms of the cushing syndrom?
Look forward to hearing from you.
