feel awful
just over 2 weeks ago went diwn to 2 mg prednisolone from 50 in august 2022. Nothing seems to be going right now. After many many years of 75 mg thyroxine daily for under active thyroid was told to cut down to 50 mg daily. Also became diabetic with Pred. & have been taking 2 500 mg metformin daily

Finally finished prednisolone.
Hi all, after just over 7.5 years I've finally managed to stop pred. It's been a very long and slow reduction with the inevitable hiccups along the way. I ended up on 0.5mg every 2 days and finished last week, with no ill effects that I'm aware of. The last PMR symptoms I had were in 2020. What I'd like

Moving to MTX after 9 years of prednisolone?
I would appreciate the expertise of the forum on my situation. I was diagnosed with PMR 9 years ago and have been on prednisolone since then. With a few flares, I’ve never been able to taper to below 4mg, usually taking between 5 - 7.5mg. The last year has been very stressful (bereavements, sepsis

25mg prednisolone and health outcome of baby
hi all, mine is an ivf pregnancy. I was wondering if anyone else here has taken 25mg of prednisone during first trimester for high NK cells? I took this with intralipid infusions. I’m now in third trimester but have been reading that prednisone during pregnancy can be associated with developmental

I've been on prednisolone for 10 years. Can't get off it. Even with nucala injections every 4 weeks. I had churg Strauss syndrome. And still on 11 drugs to get by. Every day. Including heart drugs. But still can't get PIP. Even though I would probably die before someone with a bit of arthritis who

Criteria to treat CLL
Good morning, My Haematologist has again recommended I start treatment for CLL. Yet, I know that I've read on here that there are set criteria for doing so. His reasoning is that the treatment has a immune suppressive effect. I'm on 4mg prednisolone and the aim is to taper to nothing. I'm on the steroids

Prednisolone without food
Have always taken my Prednisolone at breakfast with porridge or Greek yoghurt . Refuse to take a PPI. Am due for surgery in a few weeks time and not to eat after midnight. Am only on 4.5 mg Pred at present. Will it hurt this once to take it with no food? I cant see a way around it.

Prednisolone 2.5mg Gastro-resistant tablets
Just picked up my prescription for my pred and for the first time in six years my GP has prescribed Prednisolone Gastro-resistant 2.5mg tablets instead of my normal Prednisolone 2.5mg. I presume these are the coated ones I have heard people mention in the past, but as I already take Lansoprazole 15mg

Pain behind ear
Last night I started getting an intermittent shooting pain behind my right ear. It’s continued throughout today. I had a GCA diagnosis over 5 years ago along with PMR but am now down to 0.5mg. I know it’s not a normal GCA pain but I’m just a little concerned as I’ve no idea what it is. I’ve just taken

Statins and prednisolone
I have been on prednisolone for nearly two years, starting on 15 mg, now down to 6mg. Previously tapering at 0.5 mg every 6 weeks, more recently tapering at 0.5 mg at 8 week intervals. Now wondering whether to extend that interval further, after having had a bad flare. Following a recent diagnosis

As well as having PMR I also have Atrial Fibrillation.

steroids and knee replacement
my brother has pmr and is currently on 5 mg Prednisolone. He needs 2 knee replacements but doc says he can’t have the op because he is on steroids. Has anyone else experienced this?

is a return of arm shoulder pain on one side unusual.
The initial euphoria after three days of 15mgm prednisolone when the pain in both upper arms and thighs was relieved, I have found over the last week or so that the pain has gradually returned in my upper left arm. As a newbie I’m not sure if this one sided response is normal. It is the same pain as

Nasty bugs/flu after prednisolone?
Hi everyone I did another cycle in January and they had me on 20mg of prednisolone... Just wondered if it's common to get a nasty bug/infection afterwards which you can't get rid of? I've had stomach flu for over a week and it's awful (passed to me from my son's nursery - he had it first)... I asked
