Prednisone with Creatine?

I still took the shakes and bars when I was on it and with no issue. Where as protein stuff will bother me, creatine and L-Glutamine do not. But during my first Prednisone cycle along with the creatine,and gymming it five days a week I blew up like a tick and went from 160 up to almost 210 in about two months.

I thought most of it was fat until I stopped lifting and was doing cardio to burn it off and was surprised to see I had put on a lot of muscle I had lost.
 
Yeah the protein seems to help my crohns which is weird and i need to build a little muscle so the creatine should probably help. thank you!
 
Just remember to rest up and take days off. When I was at my worst I would do thirty minutes of cardio in the morning then sleep another seven hours. lol
