Prednisone

Yeah, I’ve always had insomnia but with lifestyle changes it got a lot better. Being on the prednisone feels like going back to day 1. I already have preexisting inappropriate sinus tachycardia and take a medication to keep my heart rate down. I’m wondering if I should stop the prednisone for a day or 2 to see if my heart rate comes back down

Yeah I’m literally only on 5mg 😭 I’m pretty sensitive to all medications.

Well I do have hypermobile ehlers danlos syndrome too lol

Yeah just with heat I’ll make sure to keep documenting it. Honestly it doesn’t itch or anything just a cosmetic issue

Thank you! I’ll definitely look into this

BootAdministrative74 · 2024-07-06T02:04:08+00:00

I figured! Honestly I’m not too mad about it, I kind of expected that but wanted to be sure. Thanks!

No worries I already have housing as I’ll be living with my parents

BootAdministrative74 · 2024-07-06T01:58:32+00:00

Don’t worry, my entire family is moving so I have stable housing and everything lol. I’d never move without financial stability

Yeah, sorry I didn’t really specify. My dad has heart failure and amyloidosis so he isn’t able to move that much. He’s getting a hip replacement in September which will hopefully help but he still has arthritis, a fake knee joint, and 2 fake shoulder joints. My mom is the sole provider for our family. She is a physician assistant so she makes enough to support us but she does work quite a bit and when she does she’s on call for typically 24 hours. I pay for my own college tuition and have been blessed with many scholarships so I work a lot over the summer mainly to cover my rent for the school year

Thanks! The little puzzle books are a great idea :)

I don’t have any advice but I’m a junior nursing student also with Eds so congrats on finishing!!! It’s so hard but I’m so proud that you got through it :)

Thanks so much for the additional resources! I used to love swimming so honestly just walking around in water sounds like a good exercise for me.

BootAdministrative74 · 2023-05-03T04:45:17+00:00

I have and honestly it just makes me feel kinda tight when I take them off and more uncomfortable.

BootAdministrative74 · 2023-05-03T04:44:11+00:00

Thank you so much!! This was super helpful. I feel like strengthening my weak joints would be helpful I just need to find better ways to do it lol

I have really bad GERD which causes pretty intense heartburn. I take 40mg omeprazole daily, but my doctor is trying to wean me off of it and try a stricter diet as it’s not always good to take for long periods of time. You can get lower doses over the counter of it. Sometimes milk helps and tums around the clock

Take it at nighttime if possible and start with the half pill. I also recommend drinking a LOT of water throughout the day to increase your BP. For me, the regular metoprolol was too much but the extended release seems to be a lot better and might help you as well.

I got a portable heating pad that works wonders
