Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yes. It is definitely the Prednisone. I've stayed off it over 2 days, taken it again and wham! another migraine. What is interesting is that Prednisone has never given me migraines in the past. Go figure!Robin Deleuze <triadinfo06@...> wrote: Jane, Prednisone for me counteracts the migraines. I'm sorry.
