I wrote here how I was down to 10mg pred in 4 months. You all said that was too fast and I didn’t want to believe you. My headaches were coming back so rheumatologist upped it to 15. It’s been 6 days and I still have headaches. Today he upped it to 40mg to get the inflammation under control. Both sed rate and c reactive protein are a little above normal.
Doctors office is now going to try to get my insurance to pay for Actemra so I can taper down again from pred. It’s going to take a while for that to happen since my insurance won’t pay for it and I’m not sure what they have to do to try to get it approved.
So, you were all correct! I am so disappointed. Some of my pred side effects were diminishing, now I have to start over.
I’m just venting here. Thanks for being here
