[@roxannewalcott168]

Yes, I just visited doctor today, I was place on predniserlone. Doctor told me to take the doses recommend by him after three day reduce the amount by half, rally it's for anti inflammatory. So your video is on point. Great job.

Thank you, sir, The information given is very helpful - suggestions: Please slow down, speak slower. It was difficult to absorb the information even with (close caption) on - especially for seniors. I am 79 years old and am well-read, but now my hearing is going so are my eyes, cannot read as fast or comprehend easily - old age is, sometimes, from my perspective, is a crime.

[@BlaxJakx]

I’ve just went from 74.6kg to 79.8kg in 5 days 😂 I cannot stop eating, literally constantly and mood swings or very extreme happiness. This is why I’ve refused them for the past few years after I had to take them 2012-2015 for crohns and colitis I had tried many different steroids but only real help was in hospital on IV steroid drip and then 2017 resection surgery intestinal infection bleed. 2017-2021 on no steroids and just biologics infusion infliximab therapy every 6 weeks as a inpatient at hospital, then that stopped working as my body slowly built up anti bodies to the therapy’s treatment. Then I’ve had the past 6 months very unwell in a massive flare up and recently hospitalised because of a inflammation intestinal infection. On 50mg of prednisone for 4 weeks then reducing / tapering down 5mg every 10 days. And from the iv steroids during my latest admission as a inpatient for 3 weeks I have now got a fungal throat and chest infection so I am taking a course of strong anti biotics at the same time but only 4 week course.

[@annieweathersby9125]

Thanks so much for that great advice

[@Kufps]

Im 15 and I got diagnosed with an autoimmune disease about a month or two ago, and since I’ve been on prednisolone. The dosage started at 40mg and decreased by 5mg every 7 days but recently they’ve put me on 50mg dapsone and 60mg prednisolone (decreasing by 5mg every 5 days) and I’m currently on 45mg. I’ve noticed quite a lot of muscle gain without exercise and I’ve noticed slight weight gain (maybe 3-4kg in the past 2 months) but I’ve been eating like crazy 😂 I’ve been told some pills I’m on make my metabolism faster so I’m quite happy I’ve not been gaining too much and I’m starting to go gym to start working on myself whilst the symptoms of my disease are subsided

What prednisolone side effects after taking it.

[@johncrwarner]

I have a autoimmune disease and wasn't using predisolone but at the back end of last year the medicines were not doing the job and i went into a crisis. I was put on prednisolone and am up to 60 mg daily It is hard - I feel like my engine is running but the vehicle is in neutral all the time. Fortunately (unfortunately) my disease affects muscles so I was having problems chewing and swallowing and had not been able to eat as much as I should have I was underweight by about 10 kg when I was admitted to hospital So I need to put some weight on.

[@johncrwarner]

I am eating a whole food plant based diet and fortunately don't have any snack foods in the house but eat a lot of fruit. BTW I am also a diabetic and my blood sugar is all over the shop normal in the morning okay to high at lunch alarming at dinner time (when I now have to inject insulin - which is the first time in 24 years) and it calms down over night

[@saphiriathebluedragonknight375]

How you manage steroid side effects on thining skin ? And your ANA is negative or positive ? What collogen supplement how much what cream should use ? From how long you use steroid prednisone?

[@TransplantFitness]

I've been on the steroids for 6 months now and will be on them until next year. The prednisolone does make my skin spotty but I haven't got a skin care routine yet. I'm not sure what ANA is maybe you could explain?

[@tapangajjar3983]

ANA test if it is negative, that means you have not lupus. I think you should meet dermatologist to save your skin. You can take collogen and vitamin E, Vitamin C supplement as well as topical massage oil with mixing them. Also anti aging cream, collogen cream on face may help side effects of steroid on skin.

[@tapangajjar3983]

I have negative ANA, doctor told me if test become possitive, I will be on medication. I start Hydroxycloroquine, but I get neuropathic pain. I can not take medicine other than steroid like you take so many medicine of chemotherapy. I afraid of steroid side effects on skin. Only steroid and pain killer will be protocol of my lupus.
