How do you feel??

I posted some new guidelines about how to deal with low cortisol levels when you are on low doses of Prednisone. I'm glad the medical community is starting to look at this problem more closely.

I have been splitting the 1 mg tabs for a couple of years now. As soon as I dropped below 8 mg I needed to taper .5 mg at a time. I use 5 mg and 1 mg tabs. My ones are scored down the middle and I use a pill cutter. It was hard to find one that did a good job. Even if the pill is split unevenly I get the whole 1 mg over 2 days. Unfortunately, my ones and fives are both orange, just a slightly different shade and size. My doctor thought a .5 mg drop was too small but I told him that was how I needed to do it.
