Hello Everyone

Am just at the end of my second day on15mg of Pred and feeling so much better so thought I would give you a quick update.. Its wonderful to feel 90% pain free. I have one more day on 15mg then onto three days of 14mg.

Learning is so much part of this new me. I now know that if I have a full on day then I must, must rest on the following day. Superwoman has retired, gone, no longer exists.

Have a number of topics I need advice on but need to assemble my thoughts in an organised way before I make my request.

Will say goodnight from a rare wet, cloudy and cool Scottsdale.

I feel so much better and supported by you all. Thank you for everything. May you all have lots of sunshine through your windows.

Hi Sonia, are you saying that you have taken pred for only two days? If so normally people give it at least three weeks before reducing, although if you find no problems it is fine. Who suggested this reduction so quickly?

Hi piglette, have a look at Sonia's previous post. She's away from home with only just enough pred for the next 6 weeks.....

When I get my dose right I like to enjoy it for a few days at least before dropping down again. Good luck 😉
