My dad has psoriatic arthritis. He gave me a call and said, "I have to start prednisone. What can I expect with regards to side effects?"
So I went through food cravings, rage, leg cramps, insomnia, etc.
Then I said, "How severe these are depends on the dosage. How much will you be on?"
Y'all, he's going to take 10 mg a day for a week.
I laughed at him and said he'd be just fine and probably not even notice. "Call me when they put you on 40 mg or even 80 mg. Then we'll talk."
