Saw the Rheumatologist, went well, Metoprolol update, and I have trigger finger
He mentioned Methotrexate but use has to be on how I manage reducing
prednisone
first successfully or not. The Metoprolol I quit taking few weeks ago solved my knee pains and honestly the shoulder and hip pain has not returned.

hypothyroidism
Just diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism, probably from the
prednisone
. Anybody else have that? How do you manage it? What sort of symptoms do you have? My main one seems to be fatigue. Thanks

missed the diagnosis?
Whenever I was given
prednisone
, I felt just great. Every time! Even when I had the horrible Chemo, they gave me steroids and I would feel great for a day or two. I had a neck flare a few months ago and the urgent care doc put me on a dose pack and then on 5 mg
prednisone
.

Introduction
Spent a week in pain until doctor diagnosed PMR and put me on
Prednisone
. For the past year my pain is tolerable but not gone. Five months ago my rheumatologist started me on Hydroxychloroquine and continued a slow schedule of weaning me off
Prednisone
.

what I learned while decreasing prednisone
I have been decreasing my
prednisone
using the slow method for about 7 months. I have gone from 17 mg to 10&1/2 mgs. During this time I have learned that
prednisone
does not stay in my system for a long time.

PMR symptoms
Is it possible that starting the
Prednisone
then stopping suddenly provoked symptoms for PMR? Thanks.

We are willing to try anything Ofev and
prednisone
are seeming to make his condition worse.

update on Prednisone taper below 5 mg and question about timing of daily dose
I think I will continue to take the
prednisone
~ 5 am. What I wonder is, if I wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, could I take the
prednisone
then? Or could I take the
prednisone
at 11 pm or midnight? I’m often up at that time.

Interesting rheumatologist appointment
I have taken about 15 mg of
prednisone
most of that time. I have tried various dmards to try and decrease the pred. But nothing works. At this appointment I asked her if she has any patients that have gone into remission and remained there? She said no.

Fuzzy head and top of head pressure that comes and goes???
HiI am currently taking 7.5 mg am and 0.75 pm of
prednisone
and been at this level for a few weeks. During the past week I have had episodes of fuzzy head and pressure/tightness on the top of my head. These come and go during the day for no reason that I know of.

Abandoned?
My GP recognizes that "of course my numbers are good - I'm on
prednisone
." Time to simply find another rheumy? What say you all?

Actemra problems.
However, he is ta king it because he has GCA and it was suggested it would help him get off some of the
prednisone
he is taking 25g when we started. He's down to 19g now but he seems to think that since he has been taking it his sight has got less slowly.

Ongoing BCR case. Advices are appreciated.
Episode of Ramsey Hunt syndrome (2021) with
prednisone
use caused (probably) sharp PSA rise in a month from 0.20 to 0.34 and back to 0.22. Episode of Covid made similar PSA spike. Last meeting with MO was 03/23/2023 and I have got six months until next meeting.
