I have Crohn's, eczema, arthritis, episcleritis, and peripheral neuropathy. I avoid prednisone like the plague, as when I was on it initially for severe ulcerative colitis I became extremelydepressed -- no, despondent -- and suffered many of the side effects immediately (my skin thinned and aged 2 decades practically overnight).
