Awesome. I know it's a great day for you. Listen to your body carefully. Relapses are common. I'm 19 months in and have had two relapses. On 18.5 right now. Don't want to rain on your parade but rather encourage you to do your happy dance softly. I so hope you do well! Hug

For sure. I have been nervously watching. Just this week has been so good. I almost feel normal. Going slow. Thanks.

I’m feeling pretty good, too. 20 mg to 8.5 in 1 1/3 years 😁 must be that good Ontario weather you were talking about.

So glad for you! Hope your taper continues to go smoothly. Feels great, doesn’t it.

That feeling of “good/normal” is something most of us hope for, albeit a “new normal”, and I have felt the best ever yet, this summer/fall, despite a flare/setback. Playing golf, pickle ball, dancing, walking, and swimming has done me the world of good mentally and physically!

So great. I feel that I can do more. Fingers crossed!
