Horrible Anxiety with sleeping issues after 9 days of being off Prednisone.

Posted , 4 users are following.

I took Prednisone for 10 days (30 mg 5 mg each) for an ear infection.  Tapered 2 days early per Dr. recommendation (was going crazy!)  Now on the 10th off I have tinnitus and last night, I didn’t sleep at all!!!  Anyone have this after withdrawal?  Please help if you can.

    I had the same issues. The tinnitus I already had before but the going crazy, not sleeping and anxiety all happened to me. Then my hair started falling out! All I can tell you is it got better for me but it took several weeks before I really felt like myself again. All thus has happened twice to me I swear I am never taking that stuff again!
