Asthma hasn't been 'too' bad today. The prob. I'm having is, since I have to slowly taper off the high doses of prednisone that was started a couple of weeks ago. I know I'm swollen as hell, but now my ankles are sooooo swollen, I keep my feet up, (i usually do when I go to bed because sometimes they do swell), but the right one is so swollen its deformed! I know its prob. the pred. I also have a torn ACL in my left knee, and had one in my right knee years ago. Because I've been using the right knee so much, its hurting, (which never hurt even with that acl tear, unlike the left knee.). Now the right foot is huge. I also noticed when they originally started the prednisone, that both my knees were swollen, (which doesn't really happen). So hopefully it will go down some. I hate to be on pred. I hate the swelling, and I hope its not my thyroid, otherwise I'll be calling the dr. again monday.
If its not one thing its another.
