which steroid, is it presidone?
ryand
yes, ENT switched from methylPres to Presidone (12 day) , can't sleep

Ive taken Presidone on the onset of my T and it was given to me by my ENT as well. It makes you not sleep and can give cause depression. I took it for 7 days and at the end I ended up hospitalized, when you get off it, it gives you heart palpitations and your anxiety is up the roof. It made my T increasingly loud.... it did not help me at all. If you expereince any of these effects call your doc immediately!.

@stacey I just asked about prednisone..So did your t stay loud? The s/e sound like a blast :/...ugh..I have no choice I have to take it...dammit.
stacey
@blackbird26My T stood loud and didnt go back to baseline after the presdione, it was a huge mistake that i regret dearly. which is why I was trying to warn..... ENTS thinks its away to reverse T but in some cases it doesnt, be careful.

@stacey tks for letting me know..man..I have to take it for a lung condition..no choice..ugh GREAT! I'm scared now :/

its 50mg for 5 days..
stacey
@Blackbird26 If its for the lungs then yup you have to take it but dont worry too much as anxiety could make it worse. I took 60mg for 7 days. Since you have to take yours I say to best be aware of all the side effects try not to have to much stress while taking it, drink lots of water and make sure you eat a full meal when taking it.
