Polymyalgia and Prednisone

Shar

Message 88 of 297 Previous Next



Hello Adele, Thank you for your encouraging words! A slow taper of the Prednisone works for you, and that is what I'm hearing from others too. I am going to talk to my doctor about tapering more slowly, and see what he says. In the last few months, I have had several relpases each time the dose was tapered. I am now on 10 mg after being on 15 mg and then down to 12.5 mg recently. I am very fatigued again, and I am quite discouraged. I have to take a nap every day, and that wasn't the case for me last fall and winter, and back then, I was on 7.5 mg of Prednisone. I feel like I am going backwards with this Polymyalgia! I hope it turns around soon! It sounds like you are making progress! I hope you keep seeing good results! Please post soon and let me know how you are doing. Thanks again for your help! Shar
