Has anyone experienced joint pain, especially in the knees, when taking prednisolone?

I take Keppa and have joint pain in my knees. However, since I have been eating boiled eggs daily or at least every other day my knee pain has been less.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member,
For years and years I ignored all the pain and agony. By the time I had scans done there was very little they could do.
Prednisone is one of those meds that causes degeneration. Have xrays done . Wendy

Long term use of Prednisone with me has destroyed what was left of my joints. A combination of Enchphilitis, long term use of anti convulsants, genetics, and Prednisone have been the cause of my joint problems.
When Prednisone first came out they considered it the miracle medication. The man won a Nobel prize for it.
