I have found weed to be very helpful with the side effects of prednisone, for anyone who hates having to take it.
I could have used that when I was a kid.. Hell I was 9 and gained a lot of weight on it. Finally about a year or so after I was off of it I finally lost the weight. Mom always fed me right growin up and I got lots of excercise.. so it was just the meds that did it. I don't think I got any other side effects from it tho.
Ive been on prednisone twice and the side effects were much worse the second time. Weight gain was the least of it!
