i'd definitely talk this over with a pdoc. imho, i'm not qualified to give or take away a diagnosis. you have had some trama in your life so your seeing a T is a good thing too.
as for prednisone i do know that it can cause severe side affects in some people. i'm bipolar and can tell you it gave me a high like mania.
seems like your doctors and you need to take a look at all your symptoms and life experiences to get to a solid conclusion.
i wish you well in your search for the truth.
