Hi Donna, I'm so sorry to hear about your PMR relapse! That's awful. I've had this disease for over a year now, and I haven't been able to taper my Prednisone below 7.5 mg.with lasting success. Three weeks ago, I had a bad relapse when I was on 5 mg for only 2 months, so my rheumy told me to go back up to the 7.5 mg. I'm still pretty tired and achy. I don't know how long it will take to feel as well as I did on the 7.5 mg before this relapse. It's 3 weeks that I'm on the 7.5 mg. It's discouraging to hear that so many are not able to get off of the Prednisone, but at least this medicine helps! Best wishes and let us know how you are doing! I hope you are feeling better! Sharry
