Hand in there, friend! Sounds like you are doing the best for yourself. Why the doc wouldn't recommend that you take steroids with food is beyond, well, cruel!
From Cleveland Clinic:
"Prednisone may cause gastrointestinal symptoms when you take it on an empty stomach. What you can do: This one is pretty simple: Take your dose with food."
I did read that if the pills are coated, they are easier on the stomach. But Cleveland does not mention that.
Best to you.
