Thank you tadatada1 for mentioning "Prednisone myalgia". I had not come across that as an adverse effect before but it explains my muscle weakness perfectly. Here is further info that I found useful of this common syndrome that I wasn't warned to expect from long term Prednisone treatment:

yes. That is very good. I need to read further. But I have been calling it a prednisone fatigue. There was some interesting lectures post last week on PF and the medical community calls it not possible. PF is not a valid term. The one Dr said the appropriate response is that your body is not asking for enough cortisol. That sort of says the same thing to me. I may switch terms to PM. My feeling is real , I just need to attach the correct term.
