Hi guys
So today is day two of 30mg prednsisone. My BM are now about 8-9 which were before 15. But since this morning ive noticed slight blood which was there on and off before too but never as bad. But im starting see a increase in blood. Does that mean the prednisone is not suiting me? I am scared by seeing such an increase in bleeding.

Your symptoms will be all over the place for the first while, even if the pred is working. Cutting your BM's almost in half is a great sign. Since this is the first time you are taking pred, you should get a really good response to it if it works for you, and it works for most people.
Give it some time .
