Hello! I am new here. Wanted to send greetings to all, Happy 4th of July, and tell you
a little about me. I'mm 55 yr old female from minnesota. I have asthma. Got it in my later years. About for 6 yrs now. I've been on prednisone since November. I've been
hospitalized 5 times a few time in the last year and a half. Sure wish I did my home-
work on that medicine before i started taking it. It sure is a struggle weaning off
of it. I just had that comment and wanted to introduce myself. Thx.
