Prednisone sucks, but if you need it, you need it!

I have been taking prednisone on and off for many years. Recently I have been on it since oct. 2007 .I am still at 10mgs a day. I suffer from asthma allergies and well as diagnosed with Allergic broncopulminary aspergillosi. There is little else to do but take steroids.
I have started a new Cause site here on Facebook for allergy/ lung and aspergillosis patients to share and receive support .
Please if you are in need of a freind or know someone who suffers with this disease check out. Hopefully someday with recearch there will be another option for us other than prednisone

Hey Kim, welcome to WeAreBreathless!

This is an awesome community, and can be whatever you make of it.  Most of us have asthma of varying severities, but of course, we're here to support people with any sort of lung disease as a whole.  If you have anything you want to talk about, somebody will be able to help you out!

If you need any help, drop a message to anybody with a sticker on their profile picture--myself, Sue (the other site leader) or Stephen D (the Ninja).

Hope you're doing well, and talk to you soon!
