Questions about my 'roid cycle

[Weapon X]

Right now, these are the steroids I am using, and I am concerned about side effects:

1.) Azmacort
2.) Prednisone

Anyone have any experience with these?

yeah, they are great if your goals are being weak, and having your legs atrophy. I sure hope you are joking.

Actually, I'm being honest.
My bulking phase was going famously, but I've been sidelined by a serious respiratory infection, complicating my asthma and necessitating heavy medication.
I feel like crap.

Dude, I have asthma too and unless I am literally dying from it I won't take that shit. The asthmacort is not bad, but the prednisone will take 3 months of gains and erase it! That shit is bad news. Good luck bro.

Shit. (Whoops, I said a nasty word, will RyanH delete it?)
I was afraid that's what would happen.
I've been sick for almost a month with hellacious coughing and a bad rattle deep in my chest. Antibiotics haven't helped, but the Azmacort's helping a little.
I still feel like shit.

 

[MP5]

I had to go through 3 different types of antibiotics last winter for the same shit, finally I had to take the prednisone, fuck that shit, every lift dropped like 10% after only a week on it.

Thanks for the info, MP5.
I've had the prednisone for a week, but have avoided taking it, but work is suffering, as is my general quality of life.
I'll let ya know how it goes, bro.
