[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 1028257, member: 29023"] Hiya Sunny. I'm assuming we are talking about Prednisolone here, I know it well (was on it for nearly thirty years!) so, first things first - don't panic. You haven't been feeling well, you know that it takes quite a while for things to settle in general after coming back down to maintenance (10mg?) so if you carry on drinking plenty, trying not to stress and eating what you know works, I'm sure it will be ok - but you do need to give yourself time. Even if you were to take insulin, it's really not the end of the world (although depressing if you're on a shed load of other meds!) and a lot of people find life more manageable when their numbers are under control. But, no jumping the gun. Get as well as you can be then worry about the rest. As long as you are eating good food, that's the most important thing you can do, as well as make sure that you get support from your HCP. Take care:) [/QUOTE]
