Re: Mystery illness - diagnosis/opinion needed pls


Thanks Geritol for that super important warning. It is pretty scary because prednisone is prescribed as an anti-inflammatory for asthma. Strongyloides stercoralis mimics asthma and it appears that it goes misdiagnosed as steroid-resistant asthma. So the doctors increase the dose of steroids to control the asthma, when in some cases (of strongyloides infection) it is the worst thing they could prescribe. Thanks again. XG
