Neuropathy from prednisone

Please can anyone tell me what happened to me. I took prednisone for a week 40 to 60 mgs. One day I suddenly got severe neck pain down shoulders , arms down back and both legs sciatic nerve. I had neck and back issues with surgeries in both in the past and had pain in these areas, but now the pain is unreal, so severe it's torture. It's severe nerve pain . I quickly got off and wound up in withdrawal, I have to go up again and taper slowly. The pain no ever left after getting off and I'm afraid it's permanent. I read similar stories where the pain was permanent. Please help if you know anything about this. Thank you.
