There are plenty of discussions about nutritional supplements. The basics are B-12 (500 to 1000 mcgs) Omega 3's, a B-50 or B-100 complex, a multi vitamin with good potency such as GNC Mega Men or an equivalent, calcium and magnesium.

No caffeine or alcohol, artificial sweeteners, artificial preservatives, MSG, or excessive High fructose Corn Sweetener.

A single serving per day of caffeine and/or alcohol can be OK if you don't notice symptoms from it.

Get good rest and sleep and avoid stressors and excessive visual and auditory stimulation.

Hope you start getting back to good function.

My best to you.
Thanks, Mark,
But what is your take on the change in condition? I am on supplements (B100s and multi-vitamin) and my nutrition is good thanks to a fresh food delivery service. I don't drink alcohol or caffine (including sodas).

Would getting off the prednisone do this? Could it be stress? The timing also coinsides with losing any source of income. I am now living off of savings which I know won't last long.

The last thing I want is for the doctor to see my condition is worse and have him say that I am exaggerating, making things up, or something along those lines. I'd be interested in your opinion or anyone else with experience in this as to what might be going on.
