My daughter had a severe sinus infection with fluid/ear pressure buildup so painful, the doctor prescribed 20 mg of Prednisone, taken 3 times a day (60 mg) for 7 days, reduce to 2 for 2 days, then 1 for 1 day to keep from 'damaging her ear drum because the fluid buildup was so bad'.
She's been taking it for 5 days and feel sick to her stomach, headaches - the only thing that has left is the pain in her ears.
Is that an overdose what they gave her? Are these the side effects? Can she start reducing after 5 days instead of going to the 7th?
She's trying to get pregnant and is holding off until this leaves her system - when will that be that's safe???
Thanks,
