I can sympathize with you. I've been on this journey since 2020. I got down to 3 mgs. but have been flip flopping back and forth with flare-ups. Finally managed to stabilize at 3 mgs again. When I saw my rheumy two weeks ago she suggested 3 mgs one day - 2 mgs next day - then 3 mgs again continuing for two weeks, then down to 2 mgs for two weeks, etc. However, I don't have any pain but chronic fatigue and bad mood swings since I changed. I would be interested to know what your endocrinologist has to say. After so many years, I so want to get off this stuff.
