So now had 3 weeks of Meth. 6x2.5 once a week and Pred. down to 30mg a day with planned slow reduction over the next few weeks as Meth can can take a while, no side effects to report. I have Remembrance Parade duties this weekend.

Thank you, I have borrowed a wheelchair as it can be a long morning and tiresome. I used to do the London Cenotap but too much these days
