Always a good idea to discuss such concerns with your doctors.
my face and neck r puffy from taking prednisone

BUT talk to ur doctor, maybe somethin else is wrong
 
if its from the prednisone, u shouldnt be too worried
my doc told me when i stop taking prednisone, it should go away
 
but talk to ur doctor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you all for your replies.  Dr say's it is from the pred. and that it is to be expected.  I'm dealing with MRSA right now and he say's he can not give me anything else until the MRSA infection is gone.Karens85ss, I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering from MRSA. I hope you will soon be better and find a treatment to supplement or even replace the pred.

Best wishes, Shug
