I am still here even though I get abit nervous from time to time about saying anything and I hope this isn't wrong and I pray this is in the right place, believe me I do but my dear friend Max who was just dx'd last month phoned me tonight to let me know that his muscles are getting progressively weaker already. He is on predisone and said he feels more able bodied and I was just asking about predisone as I don't know to much about steroids. I hope it is alright to ask this question.

Sandee, you're fine. Don't know much about steroid use other than it can make you hit more home runs. Sorry, old jike of mine. You can check out prednisone at www.drugs.com or just Google prednisone, there is a lot of different information there.
AL.
