Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 Hi Susie, Yes it is!! When I first started taking Prednisone I also had a “miracle” reaction too, it works so well that when I’m on the right dose and not flaring badly I forget I have RA (once I forgot to take it for 2 days and was reminded!). I think it’s the love-hate drug, love the relief – hate the side effects. I’ve been lucky though, I’ve been on it for over a year and the (visible) side effects haven’t been too bad. My Rheumy told me to cut salt out of my diet (to avoid the water retention/swelling) It really does help! I also take 1g of calcium plus vitamin D and Potassium supplements with it. I’m glad to hear you are feeling so good. Take care, Heidi _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
