I always blame the prednisone for my fatigue, I have been on that and firmagon since the beginning. I know some have posted no bad effects from the prednisone but for me, that's what I'm going to blame. LOL, best to all

Thanks for the comments. My day is mostly over after I take P.
18 days left. It'll be nice to be human again.
GOOD LUCK

Prednisone is the only treatment that really messed me up. They put me on it while I was still in hospital, to try to reduce the pressure on my spinal cord after the tumour was debulked, and it induced temporary diabetes to the point that I needed regular insulin shots. When we stopped the Prednisone, my blood sugar quickly went back to normal.
