In my three years with GCA as my partner...I'd not heard anything about probiotics. There is always something to learn. The group I belong to in England frequently talks about taking prednisone with yogurt to minimize stomach upset. I had a history of ulcers and even bleeding ulcers when younger. My doctor prescribed sucralfate three times a day. I have had no nausea or stomach issues at all...it has worked for me.
I started with 125mg per day to protect my right eye, I believe, because I had been misdiagnosed for nine months. In October of 2019, I was put on weekly injections of Actemra and 80mg of methylprednisolone. It took me until the spring of 2023 to get to 10mg...now at 3mg along with Actemra.
