Oh dear, I think you are correct to increase the dose of steroids again. Will you contact your GP or rheumatology department ?

How fast are you reducing them darling you could ask your dr to give you 1mg steroids so you can reduce them then by 1mg instead darling and reduce them slowly. When i first started reducing mine i reduced them a month at a time so the effect is less on your body darling.xxx
