While discussing how exceptional Courtney’s memory was before 8 years old…we noticed her memory wasn’t up to par after her large doses of prednisone and Imuran treatment for a 75 lb. child. She never complained because she was an easy going kid. Her memory retention started to dwindle a bit and was never offered the gifted classes again. TWELVE YEARS LATER…we find out that long term PRED (a GLUCOCORTICOID) actually damages the memory portions of the brain: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23775832
Please protect your kids and YOURSELF & get them off these meds ASAP!
Question: How smart would your kid have been without these long term meds???? Or is it your brain that’s a bit foggy?
