Prednisone in pictures

I started at 60 mgs for two weeks, but have gone down 10 mgs each Saturday. This Sat I will taper down to 30mgs

Week 1-4....non stop. It has gotten better this week.

IF you are easily grossed out Stop reading NOW & skip to next picture

.....I have eaten about five bajillion salads...(but trust me it's not all healthy) but I try to get nutrients in...even though a lovely side effect is that nothing stays inside my body longer than a half hour.....TMI but I'm being real about the effects the drug it's having on me. It doesn't matter if I eat salad or pizza, the "outcome" is the same and fast and well eating has become my nemisis. I always have to think if I'm gonna drive somewhere, that I know all the stops. Living in a house w/3 adults one bathroom - not a good thing!! It is exhausting. At least one positive is that I don't feel naucious at all, no stomache pains.

Week 1-2 I'm SO HOT!

My feet and hands feel like they can shoot fire! I felt like Drew Barrymore in Firestarter. I also had tingling in my hands and feet the first two weeks.

Week 2-3 I'm noticing my thoughts are a little.....well not very clear

I have to keep writing stuff down before expressing them because I'm not sure if it's me or the roids, but I think I'm getting better. I think I'm just more emotional and unreasonable right now, I end up feeling very convicted after certain conversations.

Week 2 Mind spinning, Feel like this is what ADD would feel like

To be honest..I think I was a lot like this before anyhow.

Week 2 to present Pretty Mean....

. Not all the time, but it could happen in a split second and last for seconds. I never actually lashed at anyone...but inside my head - I should be in jail....

Week 2 to present

To present but not as bad..........but I do at times feel like a yucky mean ugly creature
