hi jane. :)
hope you are well.
the answer to your question is most likely no. ironically, the last time i was on prednisone while taking remeron and klonopin i actually felt a bit of relief from my depression. i even asked my pdoc if there was a antidepressant that had a similar make-up to prednisone! she said unfortunately no of course. i'm sure you know, but long term use of steroids is not good.
the pulmicort that i put in the saline nasal rinse barely has the opportunity to get absorbed in the body because it is literally in and out of my sinuses in a few seconds or less.
my depression is due to several stressful events over 2009/2010. i' hoping for a miracle and that with time, therapy and a bit of meds that i will get well.
hope to talk to you again in chat sometime soon.
