Yesterday I was looking for input on my situation. I’m doing much better today. I raised my prednisone 5 mgs and I’m not suffering today. I did wake up very sore but so far no headache and pain has eased up. Definitely was in a flare because of coming off the Actemra. The doc should have told me to go up a little on prednisone when off the Actemra. She really should not have taken me off Actemra.

Glad you figured it out and feel better now!
Glad your increase did the trick for you 😊
So good to hear you have responded so well to increased Pred. Dr. Should have known better. Yup.
