I Seem To Have Systemic Poison Ivy And My Dermatologist

I seem to have systemic poison ivy and my dermatologist has put me on:
1st - 20mg prednisone (1 a day for 10 days); and since I was still getting new lesions after 8 days, changed it to 2 pills a day (40 mg) for 7 days and and then back to 20 mg for 6 days. Are there ramifications from this dosage? as I'm not feeling normal at this time - 2 days into the increased dosek.
