Well see how it goes -and if you feel it’s necessary look at the SDR as suggested- you might find that just an extra 1 or 2 mg helps -but if you go up, then you have to come back down again! ..best to try and get through without increasing if you can.
No - but if you manage oK without going up it is better. But if you feel unwell as if it were a lack of adrenal function then a bit more pred might help. But I wouldn't go up unless I needed to. 10mg for a mild chest infection is probably enough.
