My son's asthma became severe which forced his doctor to put him on prednisone around 2 1/2 years ago he has recently stopped it without weaning down slowly 6 wks ago which scared us to death. He had cramps & a back ache but nothing serious so far I believe the CBD oil has helped him through detoxing his body. CBD oil has arrested his severe asthma and brought his blood pressure down to normal range. Everyone should at least try a GOOD CBD oil, I say GOOD CBD oil because they're not all equal in strength and purity.

I have the same problem with weight gain. Seems like mine is all in my belly area. I weigh 131 pounds and I'm 5'. I only weighed 112 when I had the baby. Now I have pain in my hips and low back. I've had 3 cortisone shots since March. One a month. The pain is still there and even worse from carrying around all this extra weight. I'm going to try drinking water. I drink sprite instead of water and that adds to the calorie intake. Does anyone else have a problem with reflux now with the steroids? That's something new for me also.

I have Lupus and me and steroids have a close relationship. I have been off and on steroids since 2006, from medrol to kenolog injections, medrol-dose pack, prednisone 40 mg for 10 days, but recently I had to go on them for 4 weeks 40 mg and I blew up like a ballon. I don't like salt that much so I never cook with it and I am having a hard time getting this weight off and it's killing me. I don't know what to do anymore.

Try a different diuretic. I was taking lasiks and it's hardly worked so I went back to the Dr and he put me on Torsamide and also potassium because of how strong the diuretic was bit it worked wonders. Only downfall was I got leg cramps because I wasn't drinking enough water

I also take prednisone for astha/ cops and have never smoked in my life so the weight issue is something I'm dealing with also and it's all in my abdomen. I guess I'll be starting Atkins again because I gained almost all the 65 lbs I lost back in the last 3 months. 70 mg a day down to 10mg a day for 2 months. All my nice new clothes are tight on me again and I'm disgusted my it.

Pineapples or pineapple juice helps reduce pain because helps reduce inflammation. Even just putting a little pineapple juice in ur glasses of water will help. It works! So does turmeric, but don’t get the kind with pepper added as it’ll cause stomach pain. Good luck!
