Decadron

Any one with experiences with Decadron?  I was given heavy doses of prednisone with chemo 21 years ago, and am afraid that the decadron will be just as bad.  Any views?

The end results would be the same ..... a lower mg. dosage would be used with Decadron but essentially they have the same effect.  Regards ....

Hi there, for some reason that I cannot really describe, I felt the prednisone was worse than the Decadron.

I also always took less than I was told to take because what I was told to take was 'just too much', and I was 'off the walls'

The doctors were fine with what I did.

Katrin.
