Anyone also having the same issues I have with weight while constantly prescribed prednisone?
When I first developed asthma in my early twenties I did not have an issue gaining weight while on prednisone however in my middle thirties now and it have caught up to me. I love working out but find it difficult when I have trouble breathing. Then unmotivated when I don't have issues breathing.

I'm a severe asthmatic and was recently diagnosed with sarcoidosis in my lungs. The important thing is to keep trying hard and pushing forward. Yoga, walking, and weight training help you learn to control your breathing.
