how quickly did you feel relief by taking prednisolone?
posted before about potential PMR. Painful bilateral shoulders, upper and lower back pain, neck pain, sacroiliac, thigh pain etc. raised. Inflammation markers so prescribed 15mg prednisolone with repeat bloods after 2 weeks. Just wondering if this is PMR, how soon can I possibly find some relief?

The headaches sometimes pounding, may be 30% less, and I often run a temp of 100.6. I am exercising less, and resting

titrating down Prednisolone
Titrating down your prednisolone becomes more problematic the lower the dose you are on so the reaction can be more profound, e.g if you are on 4mg for example & you reduce 1mg that is actually 25%. I titrate down 1mg every 6 weeks & have found I am having ‘withdrawal symptoms more than before so have

Looks like here we go again...to treatment.
I have not been on this site a lot lately (apologies) but have found it very useful, knowledgeable and kind. In 2020, after 10 years, my CLL became active, I also was diagnosed with Hemolytic Anemia, spent 9 days in the hospital, after being admitted in serious condition. I was treated with a combination

Is This Normal??
Is it normal after nearly 5 years on ADT + Zytig, Prednisone, and Xgeva, to have constant "Flu-Like" symptoms, (sans a fever)? Some days, everything hurts, legs hurt at night , feel like my blood is boiling while I try to sleep. Are these "side effects" or just part of the advanced cancer? Excruciating

Curious about thin-skinned ears---Prednisone?
Does anyone else have issues with the edges of their ears getting raw? My pillowcases are quite smooth, and periodically, I have a problem with the edges of my ear bleeding and must keep it covered while I sleep until it heals. I deal with it, heal it, and I'm fine. Then in a few months...I hop on

Avacopan side effects
Hi All, Could anyone please tell me if they are suffering from any Avacopan side effects, I’m off prednisone now and purely on Avacopan but getting lots of headaches, tiredness and my eyes are so sore. My cough also hasn’t alleviated which is annoying. Many thanks, Wishing you well, Robert

Hospital and large doses of Prednisone??
During my first visit with Rheumatologist, I asked how to handle symptoms if they returned during tapering. I suggested that I go back to the last dosage that worked plus some, as I have read here. She said no, that I should go to Emergency at the hospital with the thought that they would inject me with

retiring: Anti-Rejection Megication Questions
I’m retiring on July 3, 2024. This means I’ll no longer be forced to use CVS Specialty to receive my anti-rejection meds. Frankly, I’ve had a lot of trouble with them. Two questions: 1. If you are willing, please share information about which prescription medication insurance plan you are using in

All in my mind, apparently!!!
I’d be most interested in opinions on this. Had a telephone conversation with my Rheumy a few weeks ago, which was 9 months since the last one – in a year when I had experienced considerable stress in Health, Work and Bereavement. I explained that I had tried to reduce the 20mg Methotrexate dose to

How can I tell when adrenals are coming back?
This line from DL's editing of a crucial post in the FAQ is cheering: . "In almost every patient the adrenal gland starts functioning again when cortisone is tapered, it just needs time." Got it. But are there symptoms that suggest the glands are waking up? After 15 months I am at 5.5mg of prednisone

taking prednisone
Hi, sorry another question. Being on 25 mg daily now the chemist said to take all the tablets at the same time in the morning . As that was the the best way for tablets to work. I tried that and had the most horrendous reaction. Later in the afternoon, felt I had a “rush “ and felt immediately extremely

arm pain and Mexican prednisone
hello, I wrote recently that I was suffering upper arm pain and stiffness. . I increased my dose from 3.75 to 10 mg for a couple of weeks. There didn’t seem to be much improvement. . I can cope during the day but the nights are very difficult. I’ve gone down to 8.75mg with no relief but I am wondering

Just starting the journey…..
Hi All, I have recently been diagnosed with GCA, at least that’s what I am now being treated for. My story started in early Dec 2023. I am a very active 60 yr old, previously doing triathlons, still cycling, swimming, walking etc. The first symptom I experienced was excruciating pain in my hip flexor

Pain in Right Hand
Having had lots of replies and helpful advice re my Adrenals questions, it has been pointed out to me that I am more likely to get advice on this hand problem if I make it a seperate post. The problem is a pain in my right hand that is with me most of the time, day and night, and Prednisolone does

6 MONTH PMR UPDATE
My last update was 6 months ago. Since then, I have tapered 100% off of prednisone. My inflammation markers have normalized. I have been turned over to my primary care provider from Rheumatology. I have went back to work part-time without issue. Despite my theory it was my infected tooth that caused

Query Re First Few Days: Prednisolone :Edited
Firstly, a huge thank you for everyone's support/responses to my introductory post - I am bowled over, obviously feeling a little sensitive because I spent most of the time catching up on your replies with a snotty nose and tears running down my face - the overwhelming relief that there is recognition
