I'll try to be coherent. I'm not doing well. But I need some hope.
Found first cervical lesion. Was prescribed 1250 mg, daily, of prednisone for 5 days. This is equivalent to the daily IV dose one would get. While on it for 5 days I had all the usual fluid retention, feeling irritable, lots of energy, etc.
Wednesday morning (2 days ago) was my last dose. Yesterday I was absolutely exhausted. I worked but it was brutal. My problem is today - super tired (slept over 10 hours and napping) but most of all weak, wobbly and I feel HIGH. My muscles feel like I have the flu - very achy. It would be very unsafe for me to even drive in my current state. I'm drinking water like crazy.
Can anyone share how long it took to feel back to normal after 5 days of high-dose prednisone for a relapse? Do you have any suggestions or advice.
I just want to feel better. To feel anything but this, right now. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
