DadCue, I have seen you around here, I have posted a good amount about how I think people should taper super slowly especially when getting below 7mg. And I was a vegetarian for over 30 years before this getting PMR and super healthy so I really don't have any answers. I don't know if there are answers when you own body attacks itself. I will post after seeing what my rheumatologist says.

I'm a believer in slow tapers too. I have just modified my belief based on my personal experience over time. Now I believe the mantra should be: Taper prednisone slowly but not too slowly. Then when tapering stops and you need to increase your dose ... try something else.
