spike in blood sugar after prednisolone

[Mushfequr]

hey all

what do you do to deal with spike in blood sugar after prednisolone? I am still taking 15 mg after 5 years of transplant! NO tacrolimus. Only steroid and imuran.

Thanks

Hi dear can you please tell me how much imuran and prednisone you are taking. I cannot take tacrolimus and would like to stop it. It gives me Trigeminal neuralgia. It is very toxic to the centeral nervous system in my case. I will really appreciate for that. Thanks

Perhaps discuss this with your Tx team tp see if your dose can be lowered, By yourself, you may benefit from a low carb, no added sugar diet. In addition, be sure you are hydrating properly
