She is a totally different person. The docs have lowered her dose and tell us she will improve 4-6 weeks after it is lowered. Anyone else go through this and did it get better after that time?

My husband is a love and he takes good care of me. He understands and sometimes when I get carried away he just smiles and says, <a href="http://www.PrescriptionDrug-Info.com/Drugs/Prednisone.asp" target="Prednisone.asp">Prednisone</a> and I know the medication is causing the problem. I hope that things get better for your mom. Just try to remind her in a nice way that the <a href="http://www.PrescriptionDrug-Info.com/Drugs/Prednisone.asp" target="Prednisone.asp">Prednisone</a> is causing her feelings and that she really is OK. Being patient with her will help more than anything I think and if she is receptive to the idea that it's the medication that is causing her feelings perhaps that will help both of you. Good luck and God Bless. Tue, 23 Jun 2009 00:44:06 -0800
