I keep relapsing when I try to get off prednisone

I had to reduce by only 1/2 mg monthly, as I kept experiencing the same thing. It has helped.

Same here. Very gradual elongated taper by .5mg. Began at 10 in April, only down to 8.5 now. I feel like a prisoner of prednisone, but what's the alternative?
