I also had high dose prednisone for scleroderma (post Stem Cell Transplant), and experienced extreme fatigue. Prednisone was tapered off in 5 weeks, but fatigue is still present 12 months later. The doctors say that it is due to scleroderma, but I think it is due to Prednisone, as this fatigue feels different from what I had before the treatment. I do not see the benefit from HD Prednisone in my condition, but your disease may be different. Getting a second opinion is a good idea.
