@pmrsuzie I hope I wasn't that bad, I do know when I was on 60mg, my wife said she was going to hang a sign around my neck... " Caution, approach at your own risk, high dose prednisone in use "
Or
"Danger, Danger, high dose of prednisone in use, approach at your own risk"

I worked in a hospital as a nurse. I felt like I needed to warn my nursing coworkers that I was taking Prednisone. Some showed some sympathy for me and offered their condolences. Others told me, they weren't going to take care of me when I was hospitalized.

I don't think I was too badly behaved. I was always surprised by how often my coworkers wanted to know how much Prednisone I was taking. It was my clue that I needed to calm down a tad.

I needed to be hospitalized a couple of times while I took Prednisone. Doctors and nurses were more discreet about blaming prednisone but I could hear the whispering.
