Hello, me again, sorry to keep asking questions but cannot get to speak to my gp.
Started Pred in June 2024, 15mg then reducing to 12.5 after 1 month. You all know the story, reduced too quickly but just following gp's advice but have since learned a lesson.
Had a flare in Sept 2024 so then tried DL's 5 week taper and seemed to be going well until i got down to between 11 & 10mg just before Christmas. Had to go back up to 15 for 3 days to get on top of the pain but suffer side effects on 15 which make it difficult to stay on that level. Now trying 13mg but don't think it's going to be enough.
Anyway, to get to the point I am finding it increasingly difficult to see even though I have reading glasses and distance glasses. I have had to change my glasses in November to try to keep up with the deterioration but honestly feel I could be going to the optician weekly.
Does anyone else have this issue when increasing their dose?
Thank you for being so patient with all my questions, I really do appreciate the time that you all take to reply.
