Anyone ever been on them and actually lost appetite instead of the wanting to eat everything? I've been on them since Monday and since then, I've lost my appetite.

Just curious to see if others have had the same issue.

Thanks!

    I had an allergic reaction once (broke out in full body hives) and my Dr. prescribed Prednisone. I would NEVER EVER take this again!

    I felt nervous, jittery, and had trouble sleeping. Since Prednisone is a steroid, it's not uncommon for it to increase your appetite, but each person will have a different reaction, if any.

    I took it for a month and each week the dose decreased. I guess it's really bad to go cold turkey. I just didn't like the way it made me feel. I felt like I had 5 espresso's and would literally shake.

    I wish. Prednisone makes me antsy and hungry. But if you're getting a lower appetite, lucky you! :)
