Hi All,

I'm after some advice regarding long haul flights whilst taking prednisolone, and the risk of DVT. Has anyone got advice on this issue? 

Many thanks Andrea xx

    Sorry can't be of much help,only 2 hou time difference to Joburg . In our summertime ,only one hour difference. I really don't worry too much,just take it at breakfast time on arrival. It's a night flight ,l stay with my daughter and go to bed about noon for an hour or so.  Pre PMR never needed to do this but often very ,very fatigued.  Enjoy holiday
