Down to 2mg prednisone and everything is good. A few passing minor aches occasionally, usually after physical exertion. I do think keeping active in the yard is helping. Still eating low carb, low oxalate, low lectin and no gluten. Still grounding with bare feet on the ground outside for short times frequently each day. That may be helping too. Plenty of dairy for bones, meat for protein (grass fed and finished) and lots of cruciferous vegies (cabbage, broccoli, brussel sprouts). After this week on 2mg to stabilise, I start the 4 week reduction to 1.5mg next week. Sleeping well, feeling good.

I got down to 2 mg about 9 weeks ago. After a week at that level I started feeling really good, like the prednisone wasn't having any side effects. I didn't notice any more improvements until I got to 0 11 days ago. I started sleeping better and I feel a little better in general. Are you only taking prednisone and no biologic?
