Yes, I've been following similar to what's called the "dead slow" taper since 7mg, the point just above where I had my one and only flare last year. If it's done consistently it's not really slow at all. The original taper schedule I was given said to drop 1mg (under 10mg) every 4 - 8 weeks and the incremental taper I'm doing achieves it in 7-8 weeks, within the recommended reduction schedule range (Australia). The taper schedule given in the link on the original post is almost identical.

I begin the .5mg reduction to 3mg in a few days. My worry about staying at 3mg for too long is that it doesn't challenge the adrenal glands to go back into production, as 3mg is the amount people who have non-functioning adrenals take indefinitely. I'll take the reductions under 3mg carefully, but I do want to encourage my adrenals to function again.
