Hi John, Went to MD yesterday. I had been on 7.5mg (self imposed) for one week. My SED rate has gone from 57 to 26. Advice was to stay at this level for at least another week, preferably 2 weeks befoe trying to lessen dosage. He was pleased with SED, but wants it to go below 20. When trying to drop dosage, If I feel pain to go back up again. Cheers, hope you are well.
