I got off prednisone 3/14/13 and almost immediately began experiencing coldness in my upper arms, upper legs and sometimes my feet.  I have to wear numerous sweatshirts or jackets during the day.  No matter if the temp. is 70 or 80 degrees.  I also sleep with a heating blanket.  I have become tired and listless almost all the time.  How long after getting off this medication am I going to be like this?  I was find while on it, active, positive feelings and warm - not now.  I am very depressed because of this.  What can I do?  I am a male 52 years old.
Hi, Thanks for using Chat Doctor. I have gone through your history. Usually with Chat Doctor. You should rule out depression and anxiety disorder as these symptoms may be present in this disorder. You should also rule out physical causes like thyroid dysfunction, vitamin B12 deficiency. Thanks.
