If you have all these concerns about Prednisone and it’s not working for you then why would you continue to take it ? Sounds like you need a break. If something doesn’t work for me I tell my doctor I’m not taking that anymore. I try to keep medication down to minimum because I have experienced side effects that weigh me down where I feel worse& I don’t want to live that way unless I really have too. Maybe you need to try a new doctor that can offer other remedies.

From one who’s body can not do without added prednisone (5 mg at least a day after 35 years daily) you have to realize there is simply no way to stop! No one told me that. I can’t get below 4 if I am to function at all - and that’s with lots of pain. Be careful of it- but it can restore your life when you’re young. I am grateful if stuck now at 78)

Exactly why would you continue taking this medication? Makes no sense to me!
