                        I took predisone for only 4 months.  My head became the size of a basketball.  I grew a hump on my back that looks like a hunchback.  I gained 30 pounds.  My skin turned bright red.  My blood sugar levels became outrageous.  I had to take insulin shots of 75 units a day.  I have been off the prednisone over two months now.  Although I have extreme joint pain and many other problems...it is much better than taking the prednisone.
