Wow, talk about timing. My doc put me on an 8 day burst yesterday because my PFTs were low, just after I posted to this thread about how helpful prednisone is. Guess I can keep you guys posted on how it goes!
Speaking of which, I started yesterday and last night definitely reminded me of another side effect that hasn't been mentioned: insomnia! I get so hyper on prednisone it becomes impossible to really turn off, and I know other people have experienced this as well. Just a warning to all the light sleepers out there (and I'm normally not a light sleeper AT ALL!).
I think cortisteroids do mess with your sugars, even independent of the eating thing, but it's true they make you super hungry.
