Ok I know when I am on 10mg or above of prednisone I will be hungry and crave all kinds of sweets and junk food.
At one point I would panic if I did not have food I liked in the house. But that might have also been from the mood swings prednisone caused me to have, as well.
I would freak out when I had to share "my" food with my kids. I wanted it all to myself. I hated it when I would go to the fridge to get something I bought just for myself to eat and it would be GONE!
I do not panic or get moody when I do not have something I am craving anymore, since being dropped down to 5mg. I remember being like that when I was preggo.... Craving and being moody LMAO.
I have no self control when on over 5mg of pred, I have to eat otherwise I would literally go crazy. I have tried many of times to not give in, but then I would get moody or cry or both and then I would still be "hungry" and my hubby would give me what I craved just to shut me up and make me "better".
That sounds like me. I had found those articles that said 10mg of pred and over is when we go all wonky and those nasty dise effects from it increase.
Danny gives me what I want on pred too. It sure as heck doesn't help, but I guess he doesn't want to hear the ranting and raving and whining either lol.
And it doesn't help that I live with an aspiring chef. Granted, she is an awesome chef, but sheeeeesh. Her new recipe for the week she is going to make today: Banana pudding. SShe brought me home beef stroganoff the other day they made in her foods class. UGH!!!
