Damn You Prednisone

The side effects were just totally awesome, starting off with not being able to sleep (well that could have been the 80 mg of Prednisone that I was on for my hand); night sweats, diarrhea, loss of all sensations in the bladder, dizziness, increased muscle pains and cramps, stomach pain, joint pain (felt like the flu, including pain in my testicles), Nausea, loss of appetite, Irritability, Anxiety, and loss of sexual desire. It was so much freaking fun. Of course, at all that time I was the Prednisone for my hand. That alone has great side effects (insomnia, mood changes, increased appetite, spinning sensation, and nausea) so I was a hot mess.

Welcome to the Average Joe Weekly blog. This is basically my place on the web where I can help spread some of the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. I served 10+ years in the Marine Corps on Active Duty, but that was some 25 years ago.

    80mg of Prednisone along with Cymbalta and Gabapentin, are you nuts. That would have really messed me up.
