@ropnrose Thank you for sharing your experience. I am having a rough time. Right now I am on a faster taper because of significant side affects of prednisone on my mental health.

@dswilson913 It might be worth having the discussion with your doctor, if you're a candidate for a biologic.

I picked my poison and it wasn't prednisone. There are side effects with biologics, but in my opinion, no where near the severity of prednisone.

Good luck
