@dadcue makes perfect sense. The complexity of human (all multi-celled organisms) amazes me. Please define what you mean by “short term” and “long term” regarding Prednisone.

My doctor said that is a million dollar question. There wasn't an answer for that question and another one as well. What answer I received was personalized for me.

How long is it safe to be on Prednisone?? --- no answer but 12 years was way too long for me.

How much Prednisone is too much?? -- no answer but 100 mg was the maximum dose that I could tolerate. I actually said 60 mg was my personal limit but my doctor pushed that limit to 100 mg at times.
