Only took 18 months! This is great info considering someone else I know has started taking this. Will get them to watch this! So that they can tackle these issues! Always great to see a photo of me in your videos. ❤️❤️❤️
I have been on prednisolone 7.5 mg for 7 years (in India Doctors do not recommend stopping prednisolone) since my kidney transplant. I have experienced all the things you have said .. Puffy (Moon) face, mood swings, tiredness, and weight gain ..my weight gain is from 65 KG to 80 KG .. Still struggling to get my weight down. Now at 75 KG with intermittent fasting for few months
Losing weight is definitely the hardest part living with prednisolone! I'd your fasting working for you? I'm trying out a few things and will share very soon with everyone 👍🏽
One CAN'T Gain weight or moon 🌒 🌝 face if they restrict their diet and follow my advice as per below. My tips if taking this PREDNISOLONE: Eat a good diet : Do not eat JUNK FOODs Do not eat fast foods Do not eat processed foods Do not eat frozen foods Do not eat pre-packaged foods Do not drink Alcohol Do not smoke Do not eat red meat Do not drink any tea or coffee or any sodas ONLY DRINK WATER , 1L per day Do not use salt in cooking , max 1200mg ( 1.5g max ) salt in the foods you eat ,when cooking DO NOT USE any salt. Do not use ANY sugar in foods ,if you want sugar on cereal only use raw organic acacia honey Cut all dairy products , only okay is EGG WHITE boiled. Do not eat fried or BBQ oily foods. One can eat little chicken only cook boiled , also one can eat some vegetables all cooked no raw veg. Also eat apples , pears , pomegranate , papaya , don't eat citrus fruits or juices. Do not eat high fat foods. Also walk for 30mins per day. If you follow above you won't get MOON FACE or serious side effects like weight gain or high blood pressure. Good luck
i’m 16 and i had an allergic reaction and my face and lips has been swollen for 3 weeks yesterday my throat was itchy and tight they gave me a cortisone shot since the antihistamines and steroid pills weren’t working but now my face is still swollen and i feel so much pain in my body and i’m so scared ill gain weight from the injection and they told me to take predisone 40 mg for 4 days i don’t want moon face what should i do
yeah the leaflet isn't too friendly! Like I said though they work well in helping the inflammation but the side effects can be hard to deal with sometimes
Thanx brother ? For your education? It's only yesterday I went to the hospital because of skin problems? I hv some black sports Coming in my skin and I. Was given (GUPISON )prednisolone 5gm full dose of three packets were I started using three day ago ?till now ?first dose I started with two morning? Two afternoon and two at night for two days next day two Morning and two nights for two days continuing like that more days goes ? More I reduce the dose till a finished? And start another packet dose? I need to know? Is that affect me ?because I went to the professional doctor and gave it to me
A LCHF diet, precisely executed would help. Also stopping indulging in dietary activities others do such as drinking alcohol, eating fastfood, eating lollies. I would also stop snacking. And start reading labels so you can avoid things like Soy, MSG, Folic acid €not folate), Ascorbic acid etc

Only if they eat alot ,if restrict diet one WON'T Gain weight or moon face ,common sense as long one is taking water diuretics one won't get water retention weight .
Well done mate, great video. I definitely didn’t know anything about the drug when I was put it it it for the first time after my transplant. I went from 72kg to 99kg!!😆 Eventually I was taken of it and the weight came off but unfortunately that transplant failed 5 years ago! Great to know these things for the next time (fingers crossed!)
💜💜💜 Tell me what you've experienced while taking these love-hate drugs?? What's the worse thing about taking Prednisolone and how have you managed to deal it? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

@@TransplantFitness me too :D
Please talk more about your journey when you got off the steroids last time. How it felt and what to expect would be awesome!
Gracias bro, me ayudo mucho.
I wish I did my research about my medicines before hand
Like i said i made the same mistake :) I wish health consultants made us more aware of how badly the side effects might effect us
Love this video... sir, a person who is on prednisolone medication for long time can take a covidshield vaccine?

Do u workout and do u take whey protein ?
I'm not working out at the moment. Just cardio and walking. I've never taken protein powders.
@@TransplantFitness can transplant patients take it?
I'm sure we can mate. Best check with your doctor first though as it might mess around with your protein levels if not monitored properly 👍🏽
Don't take whey protein if one is taking prednisolone if one has a kidney illnessses
