Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Lynda, Thanks for this bit of info. I already have many sites that will ship to the UK but I'm really hoping for someone that will ship to Germany. However, my DH just called to say, one of his coworkers who travels back and forth to France, weekly will let me us his address for shipping. So, next question - does it matter what brand of prednisolone I should use? There is a HUGE difference in price. Any ideas how to spot an 'phoney' pharmacy from a good one? Does your source ship to France? Robin > > Robin > isn't prednisone hard on the liver?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Does the prednisolone also cause weight gain like prednisone ?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Have you ever taking prednisone and had weight gain?

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 How much pred did you take? How much armour? Are you now at the right dose and the extra weight is coming off? > > I think I gained about 4 pounds when I first started taking it but > then stabilised > Lynda > > > RE: prednisone brands > > > > Does the prednisolone also cause weight gain like prednisone ? > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I was taking 5mg pred and at that time I think I was up to 4 grains of armour. Then I switched to h/c because I liked the fact that I could stress dose with it. I am now on 6 grains of armour and still not optimum. I'm back to the weight pre starting pred but that's all, haven't lost any weight for months Lynda Re: prednisone brands > How much pred did you take? How much armour?

So maybe it's just an initial weight gain and I hope it will come off soon (along with my other 35 lbs!!) Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
