Hi @anbbanditt, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect and glad you joined the conversation. I would love to plug you in to the right group to discuss what is going on with your reaction to prednisone, but would like just a little more information if you don't mind sharing. What did the doctor put you on prednisone for?

Hi, @anbbanditt Welcome to Connect.
I am also on prednisone as part of my post-transplant immunotherapy, and I have come to realize that it is causing some problems that I had not previously connected to it.
What type of problems are you having, and are you taking prednisone long-term or just temporarily? I had taken prednisone a couple of times in the past in a higher dose and had immediate problems, primarily fluid retention and weight gain. That was with a higher dose than I’m on now.
