I think most of us cannot do it without Corticosteroids. That is the drug of choice. Someone treating it without steroids is tougher than me. It can also be dangerous allowing further issues without taking it. The question was on the two immune blockers. Those are RA type drugs to help with prednisone induced flares when trying to taper. Lucky for me I was able to get off fairly quickly without the drugs. But you should be able to stop those after stopping your prednisone.
