In Reply to: Prednisone anyone? - NOLA

2 years ago. So far so good, although there are times when I wish was back on it. I learned to live with the side effects since I had no other choice. It screwed up my teeth and had to get dentures. I'm finally off the Fosamax for a year now. Bone density is now normal. I had more energy on the prednisone than I have now. I developed cataracts at 43 and had the surgery to fix that and have bifocals now. I have polyarteritis nodosa, a rare form of vasculitis. They took me off the prednisone and put me on methotrexate weekly to replace it and I despise it. Am sick for 2 days with nausea, fatigue and diarrhea with that. I totally agree, prednisone is a drug you love to hate.
