Should be OK: If you are taking a short term course of Prednisone that has been prescribed by a doctor, and you are taking it as directed, you should not have any problems.

Anxiety: Many people have anxiety about medications, even ones they have previously taken. You are correct in your labeling the issue is not the medication. Many people take. The problem is your anxiety. Use ccognitive behavioral skills to fight it. Get assistance if you need to because your health is at stake.
