@p0rtia - Roughly as follows
April 2025 to Feb 2026 - 15mg (.5 morning, afternoon, evening)
March 2026 started .1mg taper per weeks

For example: 14mg for two weeks, then 13mg for two weeks and so on.
I stopped at 9mg (because at 8mg there was too much pain) where 9mg was tolerable taking 5mg in the morning and 4mg in the afternoon.

This June, I had a flare-up where I had to take an extra 5mg to get out of pain. Moreover this is a very recent issue for me- so I will have to wait and see what the next day brings.

I do not journal, but starting to think I should with respect to weather, activities and food so I may share this with a rheumatologist I am scheduled to see this Oct.

- Hope this helps. - Rick
