Thank you for replying.
I don’t yet keep a log but did see somewhere in others discussions about that. Plan to start tomorrow.
Hoping for guidance and encouragement. At least I don’t feel as alone.

Welcome to the club none of us wanted to join! I am 7 months in and can say that I am on the road to wellness. I've been able to taper from 20mg of Prednisone to 8 by doing .5mg every 2 weeks or so. I've had a few stumbles and had to go back up .5 when the pain got too bad. All in all, I feel better and better daily with diet and exercise the main healing factors.

Trying to keep a positive outlook helps!
