Fasting while on prednisone

@mech
Are you sure it’s not excess stomach acid? I have had terrible hunger feelings but I think since I’m on prednisone it has caused excess acid and stomach grumbling. It’s hard for me to tell the difference between hunger and excess acid. I’m seeing a gastroenterologist at the end of the month. Also makes me feel somewhat nauseous so my appetite isn’t always the best.

@caroljeand yes another side effect for me was gastric issues. I use a prescription 40mg of famotidine daily. Helps but I never had issues before prednisone.
