Like others, I wish I had known about the trajectory of the prednisone taper - specifically, that (for me anyway) the last part is the trickiest. I had imagined things getting easier and easier as I finally got to lower doses, and that just wasn’t the case. I did much better when, after my second relapse under 10 mg, , my doc and I agreed that I would manage my dose using a slow taper schedule I found on this site, just keeping him informed - instead of having him direct every step. Rheumatologist I finally got in to see after waiting almost a year for appointment agrees. Down to 1 mg and feeling great so fingers crossed. I just had no idea getting off the prednisone could be so tricky. That drug was a lifesaver but it certainly has issues! I had no idea in the beginning.
