    Cortisteroid prescription consern

    My doctor prescribed me prednisone for a cough that wont go away. This type of steroid raises cortisone a lot. He does not know that i am half way through a test cycle, which of course lowers costisone. Im only supposed to take the pills for ten days, but he said i will lose muscle while on it. What the hell should i do?

    lose muscle and take the prednisone or try and battle out the
    cough while on juice.

    the choice is up to you.

    For ten days its not that drastic either. Just keep your diet in check. If anything the edema will make you look bigger. You will easily recover from 10 days...and that even if you lose anything

    i have had the same thing! my doc gave me prednisone and tussionex also and i am also 5 weeks into my cycle. let me tell you ahead of time the prednisone wont help at all so dont bother taking it the cough syrup didnt help either plus the vicadin in it makes me nousious. i have had my cough for 2.5 months how about u?

    i was reading the testoviron depot 250mg leaflet yesterday and I found that in rare cases it can cause a cough after injection, maybe its something related to test
