The Prednisone Demon: Chronic Illness, Steroid Side Effects, and Survival

Episode Artwork

A new episode of A Body Rebels: A Chronic Illness Podcast is now available.

Living with chronic illness often means depending on treatments that help one part of the body while making another part miserable. In this episode, I talk about prednisone, steroid side effects, sarcoidosis, sleep disruption, hunger, medication dependence, and the strange emotional math of needing something you also resent. It’s a grounded, personal look at survival, adaptation, humor, and the small daily tricks people with chronic illness use to get through the day with some dignity still intact.

This podcast is narrated using an AI voice. The words, reflections, and lived experience are my own.
