    Questions about taking Prednisone

    Hi Kathy, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's helped tremendously to hear about other people's experiences with Prednisone since I thought I had been imagining these side effects! It was a GP at Urgent Care who gave me the prescription, but now at least my doctor knows what's...

    Question for all you KBers out there

    Like Allison said, kettlebell workouts are pretty taxing, but, since this one is a learning workshop, just use a lighter weight (like Jane suggested) and listen to your body. :)

    Questions about taking Prednisone

    Questions about taking Prednisone

    Oh,Kathy, that sounds awful! Did you eventually get back to normal with your heart rate and body fat levels? I've been feeling really bloated and just generally icky, so I was hoping to get this stupid stuff out of my system ASAP. The crummy thing is that it's not even really helping with the...

    Questions about taking Prednisone

    Hi everyone, I need some help, and was hoping that I could ask the educated folks here for some advice. :) To give you the background, I've been having knee pain for a few weeks, and it got much worse last week. My doctor ended up referring me to Orthopedics, but my appointment with them...

    Twilight

    I went and saw a 10:00 A.M. showing the first day, too, and I had to laugh since I was one of the youngest women in the audience -- and I'm 37!
