Rheumatologist response
Let me know if you are ok with this - and I will send in more
prednisone
for you to fill." She also started me on hydroxychloroquine 2 weeks ago which she says takes a few months to become effective.

Finally, we may have found the smoking gun.
And the Dr started her on low-dose
prednisone
. And she rebounded well. During this period, she suddenly got back to walking. Then went to the hospital for the Errosive Eshphugatis. The GI doc ordered 3 days PPI bid, then home.

Tapering withdrawal
Morning all , I am currently tapering from 3mg to 2mg , my blood test inflammation ratings are normal , but I am having very sore muscle pain whilst tapering , I am assuming it may be withdrawal symptoms from
prednisone
as I have been on
prednisone
for over two years , but dr is thinking it may be

Update Castrate Resistant Metastatic Cancer
On November 10 I started Abiraterone +
prednisone
. By December 1 my PSA dropped to 0.44 in 22 days on Abiraterone. In the next 35 days it went down to 0.34 today. That is the drop has slowed down somewhat, in the first 22 days a drop by about 50% in the next 35 days a drop by about 25%.

Diabetes and Prednisolone
My question is has anyone managed to come off insulin when their
Prednisone
intake lowered? I am currently trying to reduce from 9.5 mg to 8mg Pred. but it’s been an uphill struggle. Thanks, Tiggy 🌸

PMR treatment without prednisone
Being a registered nurse I understood the damaging potency of
prednisone
and without a definitive diagnosis I declined
prednisone
. Rather I started on Celebex 200mg daily.

REFERRAL TO THE FORUM
": Despite my desire to accept my condition as is and without
prednisone
the Rheumatologist has decided to work me up for a rare autoimmune disorder called Antisynthetase Syndrome. Althernative working diagnose is myositis r/t long term use of statins.

pain beneath right shoulder
I thought at first that it was the start of a flare of PMR so upped my
prednisone
by 5mg (I’m currently on 4.5mg) for 5 days however this made no difference so I’ve gone back to 4.5mg. Any thoughts greatfully received. Thank you xx

Avacopan (Tavneos®) is accepted for use within NHSScotland.
In a phase III study, avacopan demonstrated non-inferiority to
prednisone
for remission at week 26, and was superior to
prednisone
for sustained remission at week 52 in patients with GPA or MPA.

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

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.

Is it the Shingles vaccination or Prednisone reduction?
I was on the third week of lowering pred dose from 5mg to 4.5 using the five week go slow method. I was feeling good. The day after the Shingles injection I began to feel ill with severe stomach pains digestive upset, headache, lightheaded, Insomnia but extreme tiredness. Could it be simply the fact

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.

Full circle with this disease

so confusing
Was treated with
prednisone
until the PMR burned itself little over a year later. Last June, 20 years later, my hands and wrists became a problem. No swelling but pain & stiffness in fingers and wrists. Carpal tunnel syndrome was the first dx.
