Hi, just getting over bad respiratory infection, was on 6mg pred prior to illness, upped it to 7.5 for 1 week GP upped it to 10 mg have been on this for 2wks, am completing my third course of antibiotics and am on the mend finally. My question I guess I need to start to taper again should I reduce to 7.5mg for 2wks as Rheumatologist advised and then 5mg ( as if thats going to happen!) Or go back to DSNS method that I had used successfully.
Uncertain if 2.5 mg drop is too much. I must admit from a PMR point of view I feel fabulous no pain, no stiffness am liking this very much!
Am off to Spain in 4 wks and want to be comfortable in my taper regime so I can enjoy my much needed break in the sunshine. Winter i Melbourne is not much fun.
