A member asked:
I heard prednisone can cause pseudo tumor cerebri. i'm taking 10mg for six days for sinuses/allergies. will i develop this illness? i'm 19/f

No: You are being treated with a well recognized short term regimen. Pseudotumor may result from long term treatment, not short term treatment.
