I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis of the lymph glands in 2011, since then have been taking prednisolone since then in varying doses form 60mg per day down to 5mg per day. I have struggled with weight gain and emotional problems which are know side effects although in my case without this drug my calcium levels made me feel even worse. The only piece of advice / warning is be aware when changing the dosage either up or down it takes at least three weeks to take effect. And however you feel don't just stop taking it..
