vertigo and tapering prednisone
Could this be do to my taking from 8-7.5 mg of
prednisone
? I’m calling the doctor’s office and chiropractor office as soon as they open up to see if they can fit me in as soon as possible. I tired to find more information on the connection of vertigo and tapering but only found a few.

Prefer pain to steroids!
Today a rheumatologist told me despite negative blood tests he was pretty certain I have PMR and after further blood tests wants me to start taking
prednisone
.

Concern about having more radiation to prostate after 43 external beam treatments 15 years ago
He was on 250mg of Zytiga with food and 5 mg
Prednisone
for 3 years until a year ago because PSA was creeping up & he was dealing with anxiety. In the middle of all that he had Covid & osteoporosis.

Prednisone reduction
I am reducing by 1 mg a week
prednisone
and got from 17 down to 12 and feeling OK. Is this because I definitely do not have PMR or because I'm taking methotrexate? will my adrenals start working if I get off
prednisone
and stay on methotrexate

prednisone and tinnitus treatment ?
Do any of you have experience of taking
prednisone
/ prednisolone to combat noise induced tinnitus incidents? My understanding is it can be very helpful if taken within a two week window of the event.

"Castration resistant"
I have had 2 Eligard shots and been on 500 mgs of Abiraterone plus 5mgs of
prednisone
daily. Can I assume I am Castration resistant?

Flare?
A&E put her on 10mg
prednisone
. The next day she was remarkably better, with most of the pain gone. However, she still had some pain. But from the severe pain she had been experiencing before the
prednisone
, she was feeling so much better.

pmr symptoms
Currently on 15 mg
prednisone
down from orininal 20 mg for pmr diagnosis. Don’t hear others talk about pain in this area and wondering if it’s part of pmr or if something else is going on. Have talked with my gp about the possibility of developing Gca. She doesn’t think so.

what color is your prednisone?
I’ve been taking
prednisone
forever. My 1 mg pills have always been white. Opened new bottle today, pills are beige and larger Than my white ones. Called pharmacist who insisted they are 1 mg, but by a different company.

Tapering Regime while on Kevzara (or other biologic)
I am grateful I was allowed to try Kevzara after 9 years on
prednisone
and never being able to get below 5 mg without a flare amongst other reasons. I have tried to look up the tapering regime for attempting a taper with this new biologic.

PS to Periodontal Abscess and Prednisone
Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply to my post about gum/tooth infections and
prednisone
. All the replies were helpful! I did manage to generate one last question. Did any of you who had tooth extractions go on to have dental implants?
