Picking chin up off my keyboard....

No, I have never heard of the medication you wrote about but if my Dr. wanted to give it to me I would slap him up side his head for even thinking of it. LOL

Remember YOU have a say in what meds your Dr. gives you, if you don't want it, than you don't have to take it and that includes upping your Pred.

I hope your weakness starts improving soon, without increasing your pred.
