I have been taking prednisone for five year for sarcoidosis,an autoimmune disease that targets first your lungs and then your immune system attacks any and can attack all muscles of the body. It left me with scaretissues in my lung.started with 70mg. down now to 20 and have been down to 5. every time i think i can come off my breathing gets worse but i think the medication also causes shortness of breath. i have lost vision in one eye ,no central vision since this med.break out in rashes.feels like iam disconnected mentally and phycially eye floaters in the other eye weight gain of about 50 pounds that will not move and i don't eat hardly anything.nervousness,moodswings and let me not forget the hypertension that i never had until this med. Now iam taking meds to doctor the problems the p rednisone created. CANNOT WIN FOR LOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
