Default Please heed Holly's words!!

Char -

I have to agree with Holly. When my doc screwed me over (sorry, that's what he did) last May...I ended up on prednisone pills - highdose - and it was AWFUL. However, I only ended up on the pills b/c it was a holiday weekend and I couldn't get anything else b/c the doc waited too long. Anyhow - the doc on call for him wanted to get me the liquid to swallow. He said it would be icky - but I'd be done with it in 4 days and NOT have the same side effects of the pills.

Something for you to consider... I know I would have much rather had the liquid to swallow even though I have a very strong gag reflex. And actually, the pills were horrific to swallow, too.

Are you on a dose pack of the prednisone or just plain pills? What dosage?
