I certainly do not wish this on anyone. I just completed an 8 day taper starting at 40 mg daily of prednisone. Half way through the taper, I began sweating profusely. My hair literally looked as if I just got out of the shower. I also have extreme muscle weakness and the shakes. Strangely my blood sugar levels have been low which I realize isn't typical of prednisone. Does anyone know how long I can expect to suffer from the effects of the prednisone?
