No prob., Kendra! I take 60 mgs everyday.

It also makes the appetite ravenous! Tonight, I decided to rent the 4th season of Lost and saw a Tim Hortons on the way, and had a sudden craving for a donut, so I obviously had to buy 6...I've had one, and plan on eating one more- and then I will restrain myself....These steroids make foods seem unbelievable delectably scrumptrulesant at times! I don't have these cravings all the time, though...Just the odd time...

Ditto on the bananas...I keep forgetting to buy them, I will definately grab some tomorrow...

I asked my pharmacist about taking a potassium supplement because I heard that potassium-rich foods might not cut it while taking high doses of prednisone...She told me that it's a bit dangerous to take potassium supplements, and you actually need a prescription- which makes sense...Did your doc. mention anything to you about possibly taking a supplement?

Ttys!
Nicky
