Comments and Questions
What will happen if I drink a few beers when youre on Prednisone?A necessary drug, but very difficult side effects. When first hospitalized with asthma attack, given nebulizers. My doctor, Bushra Sulieman, gave this to me, smiling.6 day supply plus intraveniously at urgent care. In oh so many ways. The first couple of weeks I had more energy than I have ever had. At first it gave me a sense of euphoria. In fact I hated coming off of it knowing my symptoms would return. The former freaked me out until i checked the web. a day for 7 days. When I started the medication I weighed 105 lbs. I cannot function in my head at all. This is day 4 or 5 of a 12 day regime. Had IOL implant surgery done in both eyes. At times I feel bloated but it goes away. Little acne on my face. Unfortunately, the side effects are no fun at all. When first hospitalized with asthma attack, given nebulizers.
