New diagnosis
I was diagnosed in December in the end, with SLE and started on hydroxychloroquine and methyl
prednisone
. The last few months have been a bit all over the place. On the one hand, I’m so grateful not to be crazy.

How long do you wait to up prednisone with GCA pain
I upped my
prednisone
from 12 to 15 this morning but the pain in my temple area is getting worse. I just upped it again by 5 mg so I am at 20 now. Should I up it more or just give this amount time to work? I have been having a terrible time with the flares.

Prednisone use.
Does anyone here use
Prednisone
approx 5 mg on almost a daily basis and if so has it caused you any repercussions. I am unable to use most puffers other than Ventolin as I react badly to them, spasms, hoarseness, foggy eyes etc etc.

Flared once again at 7.5-disappointing.
I’ve been diligently working my way down to 7.5 of
prednisone
over the past 4 1/2 years. I’ve used the dead slow tapering schedule and at 10mg I was only going down by .5mg.

A flare or something else
I was diagnosed with PMR in August 2023, and was put on 20 mg
prednisone
. I've tapered down to 7.5 mg now. A week ago, I snagged my right little toe on a chair leg. The toe turned purple and hurt a lot. Over a couple days, the bruising spread across the top of my foot.

Maybe not PMR update 5 years on
UK who questioned if I had ever had PMR due to my original diagnosis blood test showing a CRP result of 6 and an ESR of 1, whilst acknowledging totally some people dont have raised figures he thought these were really so at the low end and even after 4.5 years I was unable to move below 12.5 mg of

residual symptoms of PMR
I was put on 15 mg of
Prednisone
and slowly tapered down through the year. It’s been about three months since I’ve been off it. My labs are normal for the inflammation markers. I still have minor aches and pains in my arms shoulders and hips.

Constipation
I am on 40 mg or
prednisone
for CGA, tapering down to 35 in 2 days for 2 weeks. I am suffering from constipation. Is it due to the
prednisone
or the Calcium supplements (600 mg x 2 per day)? I take Miralax (Restorolax) every couple of days.

Should I sell and retire with PSA at 0.1 following 9 months undetectable?
Triplet therapy with ongoing goserelin and abiraterone with
prednisone
. Abiraterone is once per day with a low fat meal. Following nine months of undetectable PSA results, I recently received the news that my PSA is no longer undetectable and is now at 0.1.

The Flare That Keeps on Giving
Remarkably for me,
prednisone
, once I got the hang of it, has been a drug I tolerate pretty well. I almost feel like I need to start the whole tapering process all over again, as I can’t seem to shake this flare.

Reduce or Not Reduce Prednisone
I have had a very difficult time over the past two years to get below 1.5 mg. Using the dead slow method for the past year i have been able to drop from 3mg to 1.5mg. While still feeling very fatigued, I'm experiencing my leg muscles while sleeping, wanting to develop into a full blown cramp, but not

Tetanus booster while on prednisone?
Has anyone had the tetanus booster (I'm due for a 10-year one) while on
prednisone
? Am I correct in understanding that we should not have "live" vaccines? And I can't find any information that mentions if it's live or not. Thank you so much for any insights!
