On 2nd round of prednisone. Lower dose this go round, but it's day 3 and have major relief! Feet feel almost normal... very reduced tingling, no burning, slight calf tingling, no swelling of feet/calves yesterday after being on my feet all day. Reduced gabapentin for the last 2 days simply because it hasn't been necessary.

This is the day (3) it all fell apart last time, so fingers crossed that it continues to improve instead of going the other direction.

Seeing the podiatrist on Friday, hopefully she's found a neurologist referral of some sort. Will keep in touch with Primary. Still have 2 already paid for chiropractic visits I'll utilize at some point.

Just need to know how to proceed. Is it the vaccine? Is it lower back problems? It is just something due to age (54)?

Apparently prednisone is not the long term answer even though it's helping in the short term. Hopefully, the information that prednisone does SOMETHING to the problem will enlighten someone to what the underlying issue is.

Here's hoping.
