I have a rheumy appointment this week. I’m now on 6 mg of prednisone but the pain is lasting longer in the day instead of just mornings. The doc has me on a taper of 1 mg every 2 weeks. I wonder if that’s too fast. I’ll talk about adding hydroxy. Can you share your tapering schedule?

2mg a month when you're down to 6mg is a very fast taper.
