Prednisone Anhydrous side effects

Prednisone cut off the blood supply to my femurs, and they died. Now I am getting total hip replacements at 40 yrs old. Prednisone ruined my life , STAY AWAY FROM IT IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, if you can't make sure you take as low a dosage as possible.

I'm a 53 yr young woman, Prescribed a 2 week dose of Prednisone 1-1/2 weeks ago for continued ear infection and vertigo. Now the headaches are worse, feel like a vise grip is tightening around my skull, vertigo is worse, I'm having hot flashes and night sweats and feel like my blood pressure is rising. I want to just stop taking them but have been told this could be dangerous as well.

Moodiness, face swelling, little red bumps on neck, chest, sholders and back, tiredness and always hungry.

CHANGE OF MOOD AND PERSONALITY CHANGE DEPRESSION SLEEPINESS, FACE SWELLING.

I was prescribed prednisone with antibiotics (2 weeks prescription after 5 days in the hospital) when I had severe bronchial pnemonia. I was not told about side affects except for swelling. I ended up having a severe case of adult acne that lasted about 4 months -- many tiny bumps mostly on my forehead and both sides of my face, going down my neck and onto my chest. I seemed to have a sensitivity to grapefruit and orange juice, as well as beer (it would be very flared the next day). As a vegan I already have an excellent diet that I follow -- I'm sure if I ate animal proteins and fried foods it would have been much, much worse. My pharmacist friend told me that topical creams for acne would be of no use, since the reaction was coming from the inside out and that since the prednisone remains in the body tissue for a while, it would take a few months to work its way out. I'M HAPPY TO SAY THAT I'M COMPLETELY BACK TO NORMAL SKIN AFTER 6 MONTHS. I should also say that I never had acne, even as a teenager, so this didn't happen because I was prone. All I can say is have alot of patience, eat really clean food (lots of fruits low in citric acit and veggies) and keep oil and spices to a minimum. Definately give up dairy and animal protein to help the healing faster. Good luck and don't despair!

I am taking prednisone 10mg. per day and have been experiencing terrible all over my entire body. Does anyone suggest anything I can do about this?
