I have been on the Prednisone for a few weeks. My original dosage was 140mg a day and is currently 60mg a day. I have experienced a few side effects such as acne on my neck and forehead and a 'puffyness' around my eyes and face. Also sleepyness of fatigue. When i started taking the prednisone i couldn't sleep. A few hours every few days seemed to be enough. however getting off the drug, reducing my dosage, I have been very sleepy through out my day. After a three hour nap I'll wake up and sit at my computer and then fall asleep in my chair after about 30 minutes. And I'll be napping for about an hour or so before I groggily awaken.My leg has healed about 85%. The Prednisone has worked out really well for me. However, as my dosage has been reduced, the Pyoderma has returned on two small areas. These areas never really healed but the progress has stopped and actually gone backwards, not a good thing.
