Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Does your doctor check you for diabetes with these high doses of prednisone? It has been known to give people diabetes, because it can play havoc with your blood sugar.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 so sorry. Jill Watkins <jill.watkins@...> wrote: I have been having a really rough time recently with my hand/wrist pain. My doc gave me an IV of 250 mgs of prednisone today- my regular dose is 10 mgs a day. Last week, we upped it to 30 mg per day and over the weekend, he upped me to 80 mg for 3 days. I feel like crap - nauseous and shaky. Yuck! Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
