This pred tapering info tempts me to self taper rather than wait for my rheumatologist. I’ve had terrible side effects. Started at 60 in March and now at 20 and have had two Actemra infusions. In my opinion prednisone should be dosed out by weight. Normally I don’t take medication and a Tylenol to me is like a pain pill. Have you tapered your pred or was it ordered by your rheumatologist? I may taper to 15 starting tomorrow.
I’ve had no issues with the Actemra. I did notice a week before my second monthly infusion I had more than usual fatigue. The third day after my energy level increased and I felt better.
