Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 , I had lost about 30 lbs when I went on long term prednisone and gained it all back. I hope you can continue it short term so that you don't do what I did. Take care and get feeling better.

I told her that I had been losing weight about 1-2 lbs a week and she smiled and said oh well guess we'll have to stop that.. with a smile.. and I said yep, I guess so..it still was short term, and I did well as it was 40mg for two weeks then taper.. IT WORKED! > > , I do appreciate your responds and hope they can get you back on the med that works for you.. > > Thanks again, > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
