Anyone else get severely bloated & constipated while taking Prednisone? I am currently tapering off of it and only have one week left of taking it (down to one pill a day now) but the bloat/constipation is unreal. Also if so, any tips for how to rid the bloat and be able to actually go poop? (Dr told me to take miralax w/colace so I did this yesterday and am still awaiting something to happen). Any tips are helpful!

      Yes, constipation and bloating have been my first side effects with steroids. I was told to eat food rich with fiber like fruits, vegetables, beans, peanuts. I also took supplements like citrucel and metamucil. Good luck! šŸ¤—
