Great news Lynnray. 👍🌷🌷

Great to hear! My hubs just had two stents placed, 3 weeks apart. He's doing well and getting back to normal. Me? I didn't up my dose and did fine while it was happening, but now I'm wondering if I should've at least stopped tapering. Hard to tell if minor discomforts are from tapering or the beginning of a flare. I'm tapering from 25 to 22.5 over a month's time. Argh.

If in doubt — you know what to do! Put a stop on the taper temporarily.

That's great news... 🌻

Super! Onwards and upwards (or downwards in your case!) - but as the old saying goes - one day at a time.💐
