I currently take 6.5mg of
prednisone
and under control but will travelling make things worse as I feel it on a 2-hour drive let alone a 4.5-hour flight and then an hour and a half transfer? I have read on here that taking a higher dose of
prednisone
before flying helps?

PMR pain or Adrenal issue
I just reduced my
prednisone
by a half mg a few days ago. My hips and knees are bothering me today. Could this be due my reduction of
prednisone
and my Adrenals stating to work? Should I go with it for a few days to see if it gets better or go back to my previous dose now?

Giant Cell Arteritis
Started with 60 mg
Prednisone
and slowly decreased after 2 months added Actemra injections once a week. Now done with
Prednisone
and on Actemra only. I’m doing well thus far and wondering if anyone is doing well on Actemra only. Thank you, looking forward to hearing back from you.

Melanoma Surgery while taking Actemra and Prednisone
My question is: should I increase/decrease
prednisone
or Actemra for this? I’ll have two incisions for this, and wear machine that helps healing for a week? 🤨 I would be great full for your experiences and opinions

From Prednisone to Morphine
I was wondering if anyone had been offered Morphine as an alternative to
Prednisone
? It’s been suggested to me by my new Rheumatologist recently. He’s questioning my diagnosis of PMR & suggests the pain is due to “wear & tear”.

Prednisone and kidneys
I was diagnosed with PMR in July 2023 and have been on
prednisone
ever since, although I have tapered down from 15 mg a day to 13 mg, and will be tapering further down to 12 in the next week or so.

prednisone
in December 2023 - my symptoms started to return.

Abiraterone + Prednisone with Preexisting CAD
This means I already had preexisting Coronary Artery Disease when I started Abiraterone +
Prednisone
on November 10, 2023. Apparently, Abiraterone can increase cardiovascular risks. Now, the question is should I continue with Abiraterone +
Prednisone
? If no, what are my options?

Full adrenal function at 3 mg?
This leads me to hypothesize that the "energy effect" of the 3 mg
prednisone
plus my natural cortisol is greater than 7 mg
prednisone
. However, I am curious if anyone has ever stumbled upon any information or research regarding the level of adrenal function while on a low dose of
prednisone
?
