I’ve been taking Prednisone 60mg a day for 5 days! I’m on my 2nd day today

I was wondering if it’s normal for your lower legs & feet to get numb and tingling & cold?  Also my ankle bones hurt sometimes on and off at touch.  Not sure if I need to call my doctor or go to ER or if this is normal?

    Have you got GCA or are you on pred at that dose for somethingelse/

    What you describe isn't normal no but I doubt it needs to be seen at the ER - I would ask my doctor at a suitable point when you can email him or call the office.
