My rheumatologist told me the Prednisone side effects I might see at 15mg/day are: swelling of the face, acne, and water retention-related weight gain.
So far I have not seen any of these, but I have only been taking the Pred for two weeks.

@superfly999 The facial swelling occurred while I was only using naproxen, no prednisone. I'm glad you have avoided the side effects so far.
