Hi everyone,
Just got back from my Rhuemy appt. and he has suggested I start back on the Predisone for a longer time or try Imuran. Thanks to this site and reading about the experiences some of you have had with the Imuran, I opted for the Predisone.
He wants me to try and do the lowest dosage possible that will eliminate my symptoms...5 to 10mg. daily. In March that dosage seemed to do well for me. I was only on it for 3 weeks.
My question is what kind of side effects have some of you seen from long term usage of the Predisone? I am just hoping I won't become big, round faced, hairy, emotional, eating machine in 3 months time. But then if I'm feeling good it may be worth it!
Thanks,
JJ
