I had an interesting experience yesterday. I'm currently at 7 mg. I started that dose last Friday, having tapered down from 8. I'm also injecting Actemra once a week. I have PMR and GCA. Yesterday I felt like I almost had more energy than I could handle. It felt like I had drunk a whole pot of coffee, even though I only had my usual cup of Earl Gray tea for breakfast. I'm wondering if that could be a sign of my adrenals waking up? I've been under treatment for 8 months. I'm currently tapering 1 mg every 2 weeks until I get down to 5, and I stay there for a month. My doctor hasn't told me what happens after that.
