Thank you so much. At the end of the month the doctor told me to lower my 15mg every 2 weeks by 1 mg til I see him again in 7 weeks. I will follow that unless something crazy happens in the meantime. I guess this is pretty much a "see how it goes" routine for now. A whole new world as they say in Alladin!

That pretty much sums it up. I only know that I was in a PMR world of pain. It was like a magic carpet ride from one pain crisis to the next when I was on Prednisone.
Since starting Actemra, I had a rough time getting off prednisone. Somehow I had a soft landing and survived the whole ordeal. Now I have successfully tapered off Prednisone. I'm not sure what world I'm in now but the place is a much more pleasant world than the other places I have been.
