I am not doing well

[alienshadow]

Sorry I havent been around in the last couple of days. As most of you know I am taking prednisone for UC. I have come down with oral thrush and the stomach pains are back worst than ever. If it werent for my family I would pray for god to end this misery I am in at this point. It is very tough on me the mood swings and all the sh!t that has come along with this medicine.
I just wanted you all to know I am trying to hang in there but d@m I never thought it would be this baddddd I also thought that the prednisone would help me as the dose has tampered down the problems have gotten worst especially the stomach issues I have.
Anyway not trying to ramble on and on take care

prednisone is used to treat numerous things...when my husband is on it (which is very on a regular basis) it makes him very moody, eats alot, has a very short temper...but sometimes it's the old med that will keep him on his feet so we just deal with it...it should make you very hungry as well....I don't care for it but if it helps just keep on keeing on, isn't if like a week drug 6 one day 5 than down to 1?  Some people swear by it...you will be in my prayers :)

Ulcerative Colitis its a large intestine disease dr says its better than having the other
Now hes upped my pred back to 40mg but he did put me on a tablet that dissolves on the tongue for the thrush
He says if I am not better in two weeks hes going to admit me to the hospital for treatment

Thanks for all the support here it means alot to me
