7+ Things To Avoid While Taking Prednisone

[@TheRealNewBlackMusic]

When you're very sick with neurological problems the doctor will give you a bottle full of Prednisone and yet they don't tell you any of this stuff they just send you on your way it's a terrible shame what they do

[@TasteMyRainb0w]

My doctor did the same. Doctors on KZbin are more upfront with the information you should have. The problem is you have to search for the information.

[@donttalkcrap]

@@TasteMyRainb0w Yeah, you have to type in "Prednisone" into KZbin. That's a real problem.

[@suewright1299]

@@TasteMyRainb0w It’s so sad when we get absolutely no advice or help from your Dr with such potent steroids! I haven’t even been told what COPD is or given any advice whatsoever from my darned Dr! I had 1 Spyrectomy in February 2020 and told to go back in 3 months. Covid struck, my Dr bolted so I’ve still not had a follow up LFT since! Talk about feeling let down - yet depressed due to COPD!! Thank goodness for the Drs here on KZbin

[@sherryblatt4459]

When you’re sick and especially with an autoimmune disorder the doctors don’t know how to treat it that’s why we are given a miracle “ quick fix” ! Whether it’s good or bad for you we sometimes have to live in the moment!! Don’t blame the doctors most of them are only trying to help with your pain! Everything is autoimmune and there is no cure! For now I’ll take a bandaid and pray for a miracle! 🙏❤️

[@dickjohnson7845]

I was lucky, my Doc said there are many side effects to Prednisone. Of course, he didn't go into detail, so I did my own research.

[@pippy7888]

I was diagnosed with sinusitus and have been prescribed 10mg prednisone (3x a day for 4 days, 2x for 4 days, 1x for 4 days, 0.5 for 4 days ...) and have history of anxiety and ADHD. Idk why so many people tell me you feel energized and great because I feel like I'm having a panic attack every 2 hours - doesnt help I have anxiety and am moritifed if the sinus infection is going to cause sepsis etc. I was also getting weird side effects like muscle pain (like I had just worked out a ton) and twitching. I just hope it gets better before the end of the month

[@mctrustsnoone3781]

I was really angry, anxious and moody the first time I was put on a high dose of prednisone. It gets better. I also find I don’t have good issues if I’m also eating no carbs. I hope that helps. All the best to you.

[@jackzimmer6553]

I don’t do Prednisone. I always feel it affects my mental well being. I’m ok with taking hydro-cortisone if I’m deficient.

[@servedinawinkphotography]

Thankfully, I only have to take this for 5 days, but I do find it alarming that none of this is addressed by doctor or pharmacist. They just say to take in the morning and eat food while taking. But all the rest will be tricky for me. Caffeine and other things like exposure to sick people.And it is hard to hold off on sugar lol

[@tangywilliams6458]

I got my first one today and I'm here because my doctor didn't mention side affects and she should of since I'm always the 1% who gets side affects 😂😂

Glad it was helpful! What else are you trying?

[@Anvanho]

Wow, great video ... causes me to think of more issues. Well, most of these I have discussed with my doctor(s) already. He's got me on a short burst of Prednisone until I can get into the Pain Clinic. 72 years old. Non-drinker. Non-smoker. Low to very low processed sugar intake . Though, because of my (on the) low blood pressure, doctors some years ago, said get a little more salt in your diet, which I had never added. So I use that pink himalayan salt on dinners. Also, I'm a lifelong runner. Miles every day, but this latest PMR has really impacted my running workouts, it's labored and ungraceful. Doc' is urging me to DO NOT PUSH IT for now. Advice I"m abiding by presently. A little down as my workouts are not currently going smoothly ... see what the next few weeks bring. I do enjoy my coffee in the morning however.

[@PrednisonePharmacist]

Glad you liked it! You remind me so much of my friend with PMR who I interviewed about his experience: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6rNhKCVZqp5qq8feature=shared

I have been on prednisone long term 5mg/day. My RA doc never told me any of this. Last year I was diagnosed with high blood pressure more than likely caused by the meds. If my doc had told me I should be monitoring BP, maybe I could have done something earlier. Very frustrating. I never knew about sugar or calcium loss issues. I have slowly come off the med completely, using only as needed. I can feel the difference but so far nothing I can't live with. I am researching alternatives to Big Pharma for my RA starting with food. An interesting ride!

Thank you so much Dr Megan, I have been suffering with mG for the last 2 years, and most of this stuff I have had to figure out myself, there is very little advice on how to take prednisone correctly (apart from take it in the morning) and its side effects , I am currently taping down and on 9mG was on 70mG originally, it made me a mess. Having watched your videos, it now makes sense to take it as early as possible.

[@BeverlyEddy]

I don't know why they make medicines that mess you up but yet it's suppose to help you, I'm starting my 14 day prednisone oral tomorrow and I'm not taking what it says to take I'm taking a pinch of it every other day and that is it, I'm not stupid to put myself in a side effect effect situation, screw that business. By the way the pill prednisone has different ingredients in it than the liquid prednisone

[@kennethbutzer4467]

I have lost so much faith and managed healthcare in this country. Seeing how it has changed since I was a child is alarming and frightening. Two weeks ago I went in to see my doctor because I was having some major back pain that no chiropractic adjustments seem to be resolving Now keep in mind every two years. I have to get an ultrasound on my left kidney because of cyst and I just happened to have one earlier that week so I was wondering if maybe the cyst had gotten considerably larger and was causing the pain or even perhaps a kidney stone, though I’ve never had any in my life but I am scheduled to see my urologist this week. I of course mentioned all of this to my doctor. She stepped away for a moment and when she came back, she had a bottle of prednisone for me to take all she did was explain how to take them and to call her, the pain not abated, needless to say when I got home even though I was in considerable pain, I just could not bring myself to take them. In fact I flushed them on the toilet to keep me from being tempted so I’ve just been alternating ice and heat since then.

Do not take prednisone if you have Lyme/coinfections/other infections since it lowers your immune system. NO gluten/dairy/soy/sugar/GMO may help. Progesterone/Zn/B vitamins help stress. Progesterone helps bones/myelin/thyroid etc.. An older person may already have muscle/bone issues. Osteoprocare with Vit K2 may help bones. Ozone may help infections. Shots may give the health issue they are trying to help. Tums may have Aluminum which may hurt the brain/body. Si may help detox Al. Licorice root may help clots. Avoid drugs with many side effects. Vit D3 5000IU/ sunlight may help depression. Milk thistle/dandelion may help detox things if needed. Vit D recycles Ca, but may not put it in the bones like Vit K2. Cr may help Diabetic coma.
