Hisa dose may not be high enough or he may just not be healing as quickly.
If he is on pred and his BG is 80 that is not high enough for me to believe
he does not need the pred.
Prednisone vs Prednisolone? The former is converted into the later in the
liver. So if you use the later you save that step. This is esp important if
there is a problem with the liver.
