Thank you @art43 . Yesterday I spoke with my Dr, and he told me to go to 30 mg from the 20 I was on. I am just about pain free this morning, what a relief! He will check blood work next week. He said I will be on 30 for 2 weeks minimum then decrease by 2.5 mg and we'll see how that goes. Thank you everyone for your support and advice. I feel better informed and it is so wonderful to have this forum.

I was on 30 for a month, then decreased by 5 every two weeks to 10, all with no pain at all. At that point, my ESR/SED was normal. Your rheumy seems on top of it. Good luck.
