Side effects from Pred Forte

Side effects from Pred Forte

Doctor, I need your opinion:

This is for my wife. Today is day 18 after cataract surgery, day 4 taking Pred Forte twice daily. All other medical eyedrops rejected as to allergies from nsaids and sulfurated  compounds.

Second eye surgery rescheduled to Feb 23 to minimize total amount of daily intake of Pred Forte.

Problem: day 3 of following symptoms,  Dizzyness at wake up / Fatigue / Weakness / joint pain
                                                          weight loss of 5 lbs,in 3 weeks / Takicardia.....

Seems like we need to stop the Pred Forte.

Your opinion please

Thank you Doctor

Mr H
