Hi Gabby
i have internal RSD it occured after a gallbladder operation. my abdomen swelled up 30lbs. an ER doctor put me on prednisone and the inflamation melted off of me untill i tapered the dose and it all came back. long story short...i have a herniated disc in my back from all the fluid on the front of me. i have tried many times to get off the prednisone but when i due i swell more and my disc hurts. i am stuck at 30mgrs a day and cant get off of it until they find a drug to stop my swelling. i had another surgery done a few years ago to remove 25lbs of the swollen tissue and i swelled up even more, i have 70lbs of swelling on my abdomen now. on some people prednisone puts weight on them, its opposite on me.
I pray you continue to be out of pain!
Blessings
Lori
