Feel very weak and.shaky
Not. Sure what to do.. getting worse it seems. Kind of scary
I can imagine that feeling shaking and weak is frightening. How are you doing today? Have you reached out to your physician about the symptoms you are experiencing? If you haven't already, we always recommend reaching out to one's physician with new or developing symptoms. Wishing you some relief. Kindly, Jessica, Team Member
the Mayo Clinic does list thinning hair as a possible side effect of prednisone https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/prednisone-oral-route/side-effects/drg-20075269. I also wanted to share some additional information on prednisone that you may find useful https://myasthenia-gravis.com/corticosteroids. How have you been managing lately? -Julie (team member)
