Hey all. I am sorry for those of you who have to take this all the time, I hope you all are doing well.
Here is my experience: I like prednisone! I have taken it three different times, to reduce allergy symptoms. I had hives SOOOO bad and my face was swollen A LOT, so I got an 80mg shot and then went on a 6 day medrol dose pack. I wasnt on it very long but I did notice that I have an increased heart rate. Its normally about 62 (due to working out and being fit) but I am currently hovering around 85 most of the time, and its been 4 days since I stopped the medrol. That means no working out for me b/c my chest starts hurting. I will wait about another week to see if it lessens up.
To harvesterbornagain: I would say give it a week or so. If you have to go on this again DEFINETELY ask for a tapered pack. When I was on it I took 4 mg pills the whole time like this: 7 on day one, 6 on day two, 5 on day three... I tapered off so my body had time to adjust. I think that may be your problem. Dont take no for an answer next time! Demand a tapered dose!

I've had Fibromyalgia for a long time. The #1 thing, is to have a positive attitude. Get info. about this disease. Get moving. Start out slowly.

Have been to 4 neurologists and they all confirm that there is nothing seriously wrong with me neurologically and they put it down to stress.

by rose81, 2 replies, updated about 15 hours ago.I was given the fantastic news that my body doesn't like itself anymore. I don't know when it had a falling out, but all I can say is the course of action to remedy this disease is CRAZY. Taking meds that have more side effects and the restrictions on my daily life, because of the meds, no driving, no salt, no sugar, and little fat in my diet, very little sun. Bathing in skin moisturizer, moodiness, mental confusion, can't work, but expected to continue cooking for family, and cleaning. Which I guess ...
