Hello. Yes, the Prednisone is responsible for a lot of damage to my body and that's a gross understatement. Some of my other toxic medications as well. It's quite simply, a quality of life issue that I agonize over daily. I think I may have mentioned that my recent bone density scan showed my already severe osteoporosis is significantly worse. My husband and I talked to my Endocrinologist for and hour and 20 minutes last Thursday about my drug options to improve my risk of a spine, hip, wrist or other fracture. These Bisphosphonates can have severe side-effects and including severe flu-like symptoms, although rare, femur fractures and a femur tumor!!!!!! I don't know what to do! They've been wanting me to take the medication for over 4 years now. I and others are praying for direction. This is generally how my life goes. I know the Lord will be with me and comfort me whatever happens.
Take care and warmest regards, Sunnyflower 😊
