Data,
I have had several issues with prednisone including cataracts, which I have had surgically corrected, weight gain and body distortions - pretty common, and avascular necrosis which resulted in having to replace both hips and my right shoulder, along with my knees in the future. I also came down with PCP one time which was probably a result of the immune suppression.
I think that everybody has a different tolerance and timeline for side effects.
