It worked but no longer does -- at least in the dose packs

left a bad taste in my mouth

have had occasionally as a taper-did work

i get this before the remicaide infusions. it also relieves some of the inflamation when i'm having a flair up

Worked great for different instances of swollen joints

used this in the past for flares and it seemed to help with pain & inflammation, but, of course, doesn't actually "cure me".

had it in the hospital in IV-worked, now on prednisone

for rhuematoid arthritis. Only in short doses as it throws my glucoses in high range.

I have been on it since 2000, 8mg a day.

I took two tapers last year and it pulled me out of the terrible pre-diagnosis (from a rheumy) flare...Side effects were restlessness and anxiety attacks, but the 2nd time I was on it, we tapered at 1/2 dose and my doc added an anti-anxiety (I already take an exended relief one) for the really bad days as a quick fix to the panic attack...and that worked well

It worked great

Always helps; no weight gain

Works great too...on a long acting dose at the moment.

my prednisone is mainly used for replacement due to adrenal insufficiency. side effects of steriods are tremendous and patients need to be well advised so they can make educated decisions in their treatment.

seems to help me
