Prednisone any real alternatives?

Dear Christine,

Our specialist doles out drugs like candy; no explanation about the candy, I think they like to push patients out the door a quickly as possible. OK. The person that I am caring for is on prednisone and would like an alternative; we know it works, but hey - the side effects?

How are you in sunny USA? Finally in our rural Aust. we are getting some rain - a little relief from the 100yr drought! Any information on the above would be helpful. We are currently trialling alternative tablets from USA called Amazing Arthritis relief - it took a month to get her by pony express I think! Anyway we will see, have you heard of it? The manufacturers are Exclusive Health Products in the States.

 Regards Kace.
