I started at 20, it only worked when I took 10 mg in the morning and 10mg a=
t night. Reduced by 2.5 mg every 3 months, when I got down to 10 mg, had a=
relapse and went back up to 20mg. I understand your pain and frustration,=
but it is the only drug that works by reducing the inflammation, thereby r=
educing the pain. Was told to only reduce by 1 mg, so it took several year=
s before I got down to 1 mg, stayed at that for a very long time.

Hi @bunkysmum78 . Did you have problems sleeping at night, taking the Prednisone so late in the day?
