First time I've heard of a Clippers diagnosis after a tetanus shot. Perhaps you had some other symptoms, tests or treatment before the shot? In any event, since Clippers is a group defined by the helpfulness of prednisone in alleviating or limiting symptoms of Clippers, I would be cautious about tapering off it so quickly. I have been dealing with Clippers and its symptoms for a year now, and several attempts to taper off with the usual 5, 6, or 7 week draw down not only failed, but landed me back in the hospital for a week that included 5 daily high dosages of prednisone by IV. I am on 20 mg daily now, quite stable for the last 4-5 months. There are alternative medications I can try, but the docs and I are waiting to see how I do.

Yes no case studies yet with tetanus but are for flu and covid shot. Symptoms started next day after receiving shot. Yes neurologist said once I go down to 2 pulls a day if I get symptoms to let her know and I will have to rape slower. Probably be on for a year she said. Another mri scheduled. Spinal tap no lymphoma. Ms bloodwork pending
