If you have used prednisone for lower back or pelvic joint pain, what was your experience like? In my case, surgery, spinal injections, medications, and physical therapy have only been of marginal help.
What were your experiences with prednisone?

I was put on Prednisone in 2005 when I was diagnosed with an Autoimmune disease. To my amazement it took away my backache
And gave me great energy. I cannot remember how long I was on it that time but I was very disappointed when Dr took me off.
From that time I have taken it for respiratory issues and things that popped up and was given it short time.
Today I am 76 years young and my back is in much pain. I have tried
Pain meds with no luck. Could NOT get prednisone from any Dr. So
I get it from Canada. Drs want to do surgery but I refuse!
