Avatar f tn I have chronic osteoarthritis through my whole body including my spine, plus other bone abnormalities. I have had chronic pain since I was 12 (18 yrs ago). Doctors have never taken my pain seriously until recently when I was properly diagnosed. I am now on Endep, Lyrica and Gabapentin which together helps with all my nerve pain. But even strong pain killers didn't help with my joint and back inflammation.
Avatar n tn Those sound like normal side effects of prednisone. Nasty drug but can save a dog's life. My golden has been taking 50mg daily for 2 months and the side effects are horrible.
2048234 tn?1330814100 If you are on it for an extended period of time it can cause some withdrawal symptoms just like any other steroid. My wife was on it for over a month and she had no side effects when she stopped taking it. Take it for a week to treat the pneumonia. You'll be fine.
505094 tn?1240317431 s worse), and the symptoms of Giant Cell Arteritis have gotten worse since I started on Prednisone. (sharp eye pain in both eyes now-pressure in temples, pain in temples going into the jaw). I don't know what is causing what any more. Has anyone had this cluster of diseases and had similar reactions. I do know that Prednisone can cause some of these symptoms.
Avatar f tn Maybe you need higher amounts of the medications to fully block the acid, I personally have to take double the dose while on Prednisone due to the pain. I hated prednisone and dread it to this day whenever any doctor mentions even putting me on that med due to the numerous side effects that it caused in my case. I would ask the doc if you can double up on the Nexium, if it is very severe, then maybe you need a few tests to make sure nothing serious is going on with you.
Avatar n tn I have tried many medications over the last 40 years , but no others work the same . Prednisone has a few Side Effects , but not as many as some others . The last experiment was Lyrica , think "very carefully" about this one , it didn't work with me , the Side Effects are extreme and "won't go away".
Avatar f tn I know it is the side effects but was wondering if anyone has any ideas for relief of it. My back hurts as well I do use a heating pad on it and sometimes it helps but the neck, shoulders, and stomach are so uncomfortable. Does anyone do anything that helps with this?
Avatar n tn I've noticed that after 3 months of daily prednisone that I have developed hair on my upper lip and jaw line. Has anyone else experienced side effects like this? I don't see how it will go away on it's own. How do you treat unwanted facial hair? This is quite upsetting to me. Thanks!
Avatar f tn s causing a lot of pain in my chest and back that I did not have prior to the antibiotics. He told me 5 days of that strong antibiotics is plenty and that I should continue on prednisone that's what will calm my inflammation in the lungs and eventually will get rid of my shortness of breaths episodes. Simbicort inhaler gave me side effects that's why I'm on steroid pills instead. I told him in not coughing anything out, he said nothing will come out..
20793681 tn?1556071128 Last week I had some pain and pressure in my chest that lasted about 4 days. Now it is just the pressure and only every now and then and slight. So I have been having COPD and asthma difficulties for about 2 months. My oxygen saturation has dropped into the '70s and even the 60s where I had to go to the ER for tretment 3 different times. I came down with a cold/virus that was horrible for me with the COPD/asthma.
Avatar f tn Prednisone is a very, very powerful drug, so good and bad side effects. It shuts down your own adrenal system at anything over 5-7 mg a day I believe it is, so a whole bunch of psychiatric side effects are possible. Myself I was revved up, lots of energy, very out of it though and then horrible anxiety when they tried to taper me off - really painful. So welcome to the loonie club and we can all support each other....

587778 tn?1261397118 I also had a serious reaction to steroids (the side effects almost killed me). So now I use natural anti-inflammatories. She could try 500 mg of viitamin C, 2 droppersful of mullein extract, 500 mg of vitamin B5, and NAC (n-acetyl-cisteine.). Sometimes I add a small quantity (about 1/2 tsp.) of MSM. There are no side effects. The most helpful of all for me is the B5. I also find that this regimen is more effective than the steroid poison. Be grateful she doesn't take it.
Avatar m tn She told me that she had taken the steroid 3 different times for life or death situations and saved her life every time but left her with this crazy side effects. She told me every time she took it, the side effects left her within 32 days exactly but for me it didn't go away for months, and I sometimes still feel weird like the side effects but my aunt said this could just be stress or my mind playing tricks but either way I don't like it.

Gastritis required re-starting sucralfate at least at bedtime, agitation and mood swings limited my cognitive function. I limited my driving because of distractibility. I'm 70 with ADHD. This is the second time I've followed the pulmonologist orders for the prednisone with side effects worse than the URI. I meet with my primary doctor today for post-infection followup.
Avatar n tn I have been to a cardiologist and that is not the issue. My question is can Synthroid cause chest pain side effects? They come upon me when I have to move suddenly or at the start of a walk/run. They (the pains) fade soon enough but the pain is enough to cause me concern.
Avatar f tn Hi Ladies I just have as question about metformin whats the side effects some of you may have had? I start to take metformin today so maybe this will bring on my period. I had a natural m.c in nov 2008 and no AF as of yet.
Avatar f tn Hi, Thanks for responding but this didn't really answer my question. I am being treated for the headaches & ear pain w/ the Prednisone. I am wanting answers on what could be causing my headache & ear pain. I am aware of the side effects of Prednisone.
Avatar m tn I recently cam down with moderately bad case of poison ivy. I went to my dermatologist who was not present and was seen by the physicains assistant. She prescribed a burst of prednisone (5 days 2x20mg, 5 days 1x10mg). I took my first dose immediately (2x20mg). The rash began to subside but I don't like the side effects (insomnia) and would rather sit out the poison ivy. I wish the p.a. had discussed the potential side effects before prescriing this highly potent drug.
