A friend of mine was diagnosed with crohn's disease in New Orleans and was originally prescribed prednisone. He was not on it long enough to experience the horrible side effects, but went to the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio for a consultation and was sent into surgery the next day. They removed six inches of his small intestine, and he has not had any symptoms in over two years. I wish you the best of luck. You can never get too many opinions. There are good doctors and bad doctors. They're human.

Prednisone caused me to have diabetes too. Also, please get your eyes checked for pressure and cataracts.
