Parkinson's and Prednisone
I just came off a five day, 50milligram per day regimen of Prednisone to combat an out-of-control eczema situation. At first I felt wonderful; I walked better, had tons of energy, and an ambitious outlook on life. However, on the fourth day, before I had finished the doses, I started to have trouble with my gait. The three days after the final dose, I experienced trouble walking and a fatigue without peer. I still don't feel great, and it has been five days since the last dose. By the way, the doctor said I did not have to titrate down slowly because five days is too short a period of time to demand that.
Any others have this experience?
