I t seems I missed a few responses to my messages the other day. I guess I posted one, got busy, and didn't see the responses until today. Thanks to all. It was nice to hear from someone from just up the Hudson, too! I think this is the longest bout with Prednisone for me! I've been doing 80 per day for about a week and a half now. Up at night feeling great (two or three times), working like a mad man - my co-workers think I've undergone a real personality change, and I'm beginning to think so, too! This stuff really reminds me of my '60's "flower child" amphetamine days (not that I ever did that!). Seriously, I don't know how much longer I can deal with the Prednisone. My body'seen pushing itself constantly to go, go, go, on 3 or 4 hours sleep per night. To top it all off, the headaches slip in very subtly at several times during the day, just to let me know they are still here! Nothing I can't handle, just a warning. My gut feeling tells me I'm probably in the middle of my "peak." So, I'll continue the roller coaster ride with the Prednisone.
