I take 7.5 mgs of prednisone and I can relate to your letter. I take 5mg for one pill but I have to break the other one with my teeth. Sometimes, the break is really way off and I throw that one away. I start over but I know I'm wasting money. I asked my endo about the difference in the break up of the pills and does it hurt me to get more or less because I break them ?  He said,"It all works out."  I told him ," I would have to take his word for it." 

I have no problem with the little white pill that keeps me alive. It's easy to swallow. Take with food or milk. It's just very important that the dose is correct. To much and I turn into a little butterball not enough and all I want to do is sleep. No matter what, exercise makes having CAH and taking cortisones better. A little walk or anything that someone would stay with. I walk a half mile four days a week and go to the gym three.

I'm 5'1", my weight has been from anywhere between 118 to 175. It usually stays at 132, it depends on my food choices. My biological parents were 5'5" weight 110 and 5'6" weight 165. I put this in this post because people always wonder what someone's finale height and weight is on the medication that they take.
