Prednisone side effects
Is anyone else on prednisone for there CKD? I’m on 10mg daily but there are side effects that i really struggle with such as bloating of the stomach, anxiety,tremors with my hands when doing certain things and really bad anxiety does anyone also have any side effects?
Hello
, thank you for asking this question. I didn't use it for CKD, but I was taking it for psoriatic arthritis. I had side effects like blurred vision, walking sideways (so it seems), and my blood pressure was rising. My doctor decided to take me off of it. Let us know what you decide to do - stay on it - or get off of it. Diane (Team Member) Hello
no worries at all it’s my pleasure, yeah the side effects are not good.. my blood pressure has also been rising.. the thing is though I can’t just come off it because last time I did very quickly I ended up in hospital for 4 months so waiting for my consultant’s decision on what I can do Khiry (Team Member) 
, I'm on the same medication & doses. The side effects have been so harsh on my body I've gained a ridiculous amount of weight; I also get bloating on my face, arms, belly and legs. I only recently started to feel the anxiety. It's been just under a year, but it's severe now. I've also delt with tremors in my hands, but now it's to a point where my phone will randomly drop out of my hand or my spoon drop. It's very frustrating, but unfortunately, I can't come off it, and doctors told me it's basically this ordialysiss as it's helping mytransplantt kidney.
Thank you
