Increased prednisone to address this longstanding flare
I've been flaring since September '22 when I got the last covid booster and finally decided that I needed to increase my
prednisone
to address the increasing aches and pains that seem to be spreading as time wore on.

Anybody else with autoimmune anemia?
I wondered if there's anything I can take for it other than
prednisone
? I know anemia aggravates afib, as does
prednisone
. (I've had lupus for 20 years- anemia is the only symptom I've ever had- most of my inflammation markers are normal)

Zytiga started
Although we are not completely convinced it is needed : PSA went from 2 to 3 immediately after 6 weeks radiation which we expected to happen, MO insists on us adding Zy and
prednisone
. I am trying to get a second opinion but I did start it about 2 weeks ago.

Hi there, I’ve (24M) been on fostair as a preventer inhaler since around the age of 17/18. My asthma has been extremely well controlled on 2 puffs BD for a number of years. However a few weeks ago I have quite a bad flare up which landed me in A&E twice and had a 2 week course of prednisolone. Since

Xtandi after Zytiga
MO refusing to substitute dexa for
prednisone
with Abiraterone since it's not FDA approved. Convinced (?) him to wait 3 weeks (4/5) for blood test after radiation of only active met to check PSA which was 0.253 on 1/21 and 0.309 on 2/21. Hoping result lets me stay on Aba as long as possible.

prednisone lowering dosage
hi there everyone, so since I wrote here I was on 9 mg of
prednisone
a day I have managed to get down to 5mgs a day, which right now seems the lowest I can get to, although I will try again in two weeks.

Advice Please, I am in a terrible state.
I am a mess. I was tapering my prednisolone from 3mg to 2.5 mg using a reduction over 14 weeks, starting 19th September and was progressing nicely. In November we travelled long haul UK to USA, journey no hassle, flights good. But, I did experienced emotional stress caused by a family upset while

pain relief for sciatica
I've trapped the sciatic nerve in my left hip. I have exercises which help, but still need pain relief. Paracetamol has no effect, is it safe to take ibuprofen with prednisolone? I thought I had read somewhere that it wasn't.

Interesting info
However, no study has yet compared the benefits and risks of low-dose GCs (≤7.5 mg
prednisone
equivalent per day)75 without DMARDs against DMARDs without GCs." Just proves what many have been saying here...

possible GCA flare post covid
Prednisone
has been very hard on me and I need to be off it. I’m afraid if I call my doctor they will increase my
prednisone
and I’ve worked so hard to get were I am. I know I’m whining, it has been two years next week since this all started.
