Hi I was on 40 mg of prednisone a year ago I am now taking 1 mg and on the next day I take 1/2 mg so far everything is ok .I have a bit of stiffness some days but over all it’s ok. I find I am tried during the day but just take a nap. I had a fatty liver but I changed how I eat no sugar,fried food ,
bread just veg and fruit and meat is all I eat I have lost 40 lbs. My doctor said I could stay on a low amount of prednisone for life but why if I don’t need it. So I am coming off the prednisone and see how I do. I am not a big help I have not taken anything else for pmr.
