Learning about GCA
Now increased from 10mg to 60mg
prednisone
. Eye check isn’t showing any long term damage and I have a plan going forward for steroids. Bit I’m struggling with is feeling grotty and trying to pace myself as I was previously very active. Also quite scared to be honest.

Recent OCD diagnosis coupled with autoimmune issues- Need hospital, treatment centers, advice or recommendations
The next 6 months he held down a job, did not self harm, had zero suicidal ideations, and felt like a normal 18 year old, until... they began decreasing his
prednisone
5mg a week. Within 4 weeks, he was worse than he was before they began the

PREDNISONE TAPERING WITH ACTEMRA
So I went up to 60 mg
prednisone
. Now I’m at 10 mg
prednisone
and am just starting Actemra. My question is how fast can I taper
prednisone
with Actemra? PS: I feel like the PMR never came back though. I had no PMR symptoms this time around. Would that be possible?

Reduction of prednisone and night pain
I have been slowly reducing my
prednisone
while doing Actemra. I reduced to 2 1/2 mg three days ago. I am experiencing shoulder and some hip pain while sleeping. Once I get up it is much better. Could this be happening because my body is getting used to the reduction in
prednisone
?

Sudden blotch on stomach
Hi I was diagnosed in January after blood tests but I have just noticed a bright red blotch on left lower stomach, would this be a PMR symptom or side affect of
Prednisone
? Has anyone else had this? I am seeing my GP in April.

Symptoms when ADT no longer works?
Taking abiraterone +
prednisone
daily and Lupron shots twice a year. I am doing my best to live one day at a time but wonder what things will look like when the cancer becomes resistant. Does anybody know?

Missed dose and Adrenal Failure
Can
Prednisone
be taken instead of Prednisolone? I’m really hoping that I can sort this out today over the phone to my GP’s surgery and the pharmacy and don’t have to resort to missing doses but any information would be most welcome.

I’ve been having flashes of light and now a dark spot in that eye. What to do? Could it be GCA? Back surgery on March 15.
I’m on 9mg of
prednisone
at this time. My PA requested the
prednisone
for my surgery and after surgery so I will not have an adrenal crisis. Thanks for any suggestions.

Reducing Prednisone!
Hi, Although I have been using
Prednisone
for over three years now I can’t say if gained any wisdom I can give you other than try hard to reduce the dosage very slowly. I’ve managed to reduce my dosage from 6 mags daily to now 1.5 msg daily and am hoping to phase completely off it!

Surgery and aspirin: what protocol with APS?
For the past 2 months I've been following a treatment based on Methylprednisolone infusions (2.5 g) and Oral
prednisone
(of which I'm currently taking 5 mg. Per day). I have doubts if I should stop all together Aspirine and what protocol to follow for surgery when having APS.

Energy Boosters?
62 months of Lupron, Zytiga and
prednisone
is starting to take its toll on my energy. I still do an hour of QiGong, biking and hiking most days but getting harder to motivate myself through the ever increasing exhaustion. That said, anyone finding an energy boost from medical cannabis?

Low T
My husband has been on "vacation" from ADT, zytiga and
prednisone
for a year. His PSA is tested every 3 months. Today's number is still <0.1 ng/ml. However, his T was slowly building...17, 24, 42 and now dropping to 34. Should I be worried?
