I am having issues with connective tissue around my knees so asked my doctor for consideration of an MRI to determine exactly what is going on. I feel stiffness in both knees but no outward signs ( like warmth, redness or swelling). Something is going on but I must admit I was diagnosed with knee bursitis prior to being on the prednisone this July. Now, unfortunately it is worse and I am on 15mg of prednisone day so one would think that would help.
