Hello all. I'm on 5mg pred and stable after a good few weeks and think I'm fit to take next step in taper. I had been doing a .25mg a week drop but went a bit wonky at 4.5mg. I think I might be better served to try the proper slow taper. I saw the resource for devising your own taper that you can print out a calendar but what with a brain full of treacle and so on, I can't remember where that resource is. Anyone able to point me in the right direction? Many thanks in advance.
