muscle/joint aches on prednisone?
Anyone else have achiness on prednisone?
I think at this point I've taken nearly every drug there is in trying to conceive... Prednisone is by far the worst
Anyone else have that side effect on prednisone? I'm just assuming that's what it's from.. who knows..

Re: muscle/joint aches on prednisone?
I dont think so but Im' sure plenty of meds have different effects on different people They can prescribe prednisone for ppl with pain issues. When I was on it, all my aches and pains went away. I think you should ask dr b.

I didn't have that, but I tend to not get the same side effects everyone else has. Did you look up Dr. Google. I think, and don't quote me, but I have heard that once before at least. They always tell me to take lots of vitamin D (think 1200iu) and fish oil pills with it. Are you doing that?

I looked it up on google, and it seems like its mostly a side effect when weening off, which I certainly am NOT (right now, anyway!) .. I actually take fish oil with lunch and dinner and 5,000ius of vitamin D!!

Re: muscle/joint aches on prednisone?
I just started prednisone last week and I had horrible leg pains the first 2 nights I was on it. It has since subsided, but I suspected it was from the prednisone too. I've taken medrol in the past which is only slightly different, but I had very different side effects - the biggest was insomnia and just a crazy amount of energy, which is not a bad thing. This time, with the prednisone, i can barely keep my eyes open all day. I also was never on it with Lovenox before and I wonder if the combo, along with the slew of other meds I'm on, is what's causing the drowsiness. Whatever's causing your leg pain, I hope you feel better soon!

Welp, forget that then...lol... Hmm...it must be that but what can you do about it is the question? Are you exercising (maybe just get walking a bit to get blood flowing)? Otherwise I'm out of ideas for now...lol.. I'll be on it soon myself. I actually found an old bottle that was full and trying to figure out why I have so much. It didn't expire yet, luckily.
