Question Prednisone.....

Prednisone is a weird medication.
It's uses are many.
I know that it decreases symptoms of different conditions but does not treat the underlying problem.
so it makes you feel better....
so it is like a lie with potentially harmful side effects.
I was hesitant to take the 10mg prescribed for my shoulder, talked with the pharmacist because my pdoc did not respond to my call in a timely manner, reassured me that 10mg was not too high a dose jsut to take it in the morning, because it could interfer with my sleep.
WEll it has helped my arm to feel better so that is good but it is a lie, so I wonder if I should really be taking it? I am going to stop taking it because I don't want to mask my sypmtoms wehn I see this new Doctor on thursday.
Does this make sense or do I not understand prednisone?????
