I really don't know. Prednisone is prescribed for a lot of conditions. It really makes you feel good but it wreaks havoc on your bones, etc. if you stay on it long term. A lot of us call it the drug we love to hate.
Does that mean you've probably got some form of arthritic condition and what happens after you've finished your pack? My doc said she would let me stay on it for six months but no longer than that. So I wonder what's next?
