Prednisone is a synthetic corticosteroid used for its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. In the context of Long COVID, it is sometimes used in short courses to manage severe inflammatory flares.
When it’s helping, I feel as close to normal as I have in four years. But it can’t seem to get me over the edge. Helped a lot with swelling at the beginning, now it doesn’t seem to be. When swelling is down, brain fog and fatigue are gone. Feels like a miracle. Then the swelling comes back and it’s back to feeling lousy. Still stronger on it than off it.
