What Causes Shortness Of Breath While On Prednisone?
I have had a virus, lung congestion. My doctor has treated me with two bouts of antibiotic and two massive prednisone treatments. Now I am out of breath at the least bit of walking or working. What is causing that. Could it be the prednisone? Or am I still healing. I really do not feel well.

Hi,
I have gone through your question,prednisone has side effects of shortness of breath,loss of apettite,pain the body...etc.so mostly in your case its because of prednisone but it could not be stopped suddenly so consult your GP as soon as possible.
Hope this information helps you.
