@laura1970 This is all very interesting! Great to hear from someone in the healthcare field. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I have AIH, so an overactive immune system, so hope adrenal atrophy may be less likely.
Really good to hear about your experiences with 2.5 mg of prednisone. I'm currently being tapered and am on 5mg so will be requesting 2.5 going ahead if all is stable with my blood work next month.

@humbug it may be worth trying 5 mg alternating with 2.5 mg before going straight to 2.5. Maybe something to discuss with your doctor
