@ncgal, the dizziness and fatigue or low energy level can be a side effect of the prednisone for some people. The information on Mayo Clinic's website for the drug says if you have more than one of these symptoms you should discuss it with your doctor / rheumatologist.

I have not had those symptoms while I was taking prednisone so it's good that you have an upcoming virtual appointment with your rheumatologist.
