I am tapering my pred dose and started having loose stools at 20mg/day, only 1-3 BMs per day. GI stay at this dose until symptoms change. After 10 days BMs are mostly soft and formed, but started to see bright red blood at the end of the movement and on TP. I only see the blood when I push hard. Could this be hemorrhoids?
Also, I have lost 7lbs in the last 3 weeks at 20mg pred. Is this normal?
Appreciate everyone's thoughts on this.
Thanks
