I would agree with the first reply. I'm now on zero - for the last 18 months or so. Not sure it's a good idea? I must admit that since coming off pred following a WG diagnosis in early 2007, I'm now feeling the effects? Perhaps it's my age creeping up? I am 67 after all!

I'm not ready to give up though!
