Prednisone poops are the best!
I was loosely (no pun intended) diagnosed with Crohn’s (mild/moderate small bowel) a year ago and officially about 6 months ago and have been doing relatively well since a round of Budesonide and then Pentasa. Cramping minimal, only 3-4 bowel movements a day and they are mostly solid (or so I thought) but still with lots of undigested food. But was put on Predinsone for 7 days for an orthopedic issue and I realized as good as I felt I was doing, it was in no way, shape, or form as good as being on prednisone. OMG! I’m only going 1-2 times a day and they are actually solid. No food. Like totally normal. I wish I could stay on steroids but I couldn’t even stay on Budesonide long term because the side effects were so bad for me. I’m hoping maybe the inflammation will stay away after this round of prednisone.
Does anyone cycle prednisone to try to keep their symptoms at bay? Considering asking my doctor about it.
