REPORT

My wife is diagnosed with Nuero optic myletis for the last 1 month. She is given Omnacortil 40mg (1-0-0) daily. She is feeling heaviness of body (feels like lead), and cramps in hands / legs that makes stick to bed. However before taking the tablet and 8hrs after taking the tablet she is able to move around a lot better. Additional observation is the Blood sugar level goes up to 240 after few hrs of taking the tablet.

Is this heaviness or cramps a side effect of omnacortil tablet or is an increased blood sugar level causing this ?
